TO-DAY'S EPIC SENIOR SHIELD SOCCER FIRST
SHANGHAI LADIES IN FINAL HOCKEY TRIAL PIVOTS DISAPPOINT SELECTORS
STRONG FORWARD LINES
Shanghai, Jan. 20. The final women's interport hockey trial was held at Hongkew Park yesterday morning in conditions which were far from ideal, with the field extremely soft in patches, and considerable difficulty was experienced by the players in keeping their feet.
The result, a win for the Possibles (colours)-over the Pro- .bables (Whites) by the odd goal in five, was unexpected and must have given the selectors anxiety as to the merit of the probable Interporters. With one exception, Nellie Becke filling the Colours" centre forward position instead of Adelheid Greiner, the teams played as announced.
Even exchanges took place during the opening 35 minutes when both sides scored twice, but after the change-over, the Pro- bables were decidedly superior and play was confined to the other side of the field for the greater part.
The Probables were unlucky in not acoring as they pressed most of the time while at the other end, Possibles obtained a goal in their only genuine attack during the closing minutes.
The Players Described
In the Whites' forward line. Claire Nichols and Jean Raeburn were prominent and their stickwork and combination proved sound and effective,
Mary Sherklan was a rare oppur-. tunist and showed the shooting! ability necessary in a centre for-j ward.
