Once again Forest Hills has pro- vided a smashing finish for the British lawn tennis hopes. Not one of the four English represen- tatives succeeded in reaching the quarter finals.

I learnt in conversation with Dhyan Chand that he had played in all 27 matches and had scored 101 goals out of the 260 metted by the tourists, while his brother Rup Singh had scored 75 goals. He told me that Garhut Singh the bearded forward had also been very successful, scoring about..... 35 goals.
Speaking of the team combina- tion he told me that it had improv ed very greatly since they played in Colombo last May. He said that Ceylon would be quick to note the improvement to-morrow.

Police tell of the desperate efforts of the hikers to get aid for their injured friend during the night, of how one of their number made his way to Sham Shui Po police station and led a party of officers back into the hills in an attempt to find his companions. They hunted throughout the night without avail. A full story of the tragedy is given in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL...
