DAZZLING DISPLAY OF
HOCKEY
INDIANS BEAT CEYLON IN SECOND MATCH
WIN BY 21 GOALS TO NIL
Colombo, April 24.
INDIA'S team of hockey tourists made ample amends for their comparatively disappointing display on Monday when they gave a dazzling performance yesterday at Longden Place and made hockey history for Ceylon defeating the local side by the record margin of 21 goals to nil It was an object lesson in perfect team work and almost
uncannily deft stick work. It was a pity that the gathering that turned out was-but a fraction of the crowd that gathered the first day
There were a few preliminary skirmishes in the first five minutes before the visitors settled down together. In this brief snell Ceylon had a fair share of the exchanges and in fact made the first attempt at scoring when Thomasz volleyed a full blooded shot at goal and struck the visiting keeper.

Play throughout was inclined to be dull and seldom interesting, due probably to the trying weather, but the first 10 minutes of the second half produced a brief flash of excitement and four quick goals, three of them for the Army, and two netted within the space of less than a minute!
