PYARA SINGH'S BRILLIANCE
FAST
(By "REFEREE")
MAST and furious hockey was witnessed on the Club ground
yesterday when the Argonautas and the Kowloon Indians'! - Tennis Club shared two goals in their Semi-Final round match in the Civilian Section of the Inter-Section Hockey Tournament, several "incidents" occurring during an encounter marred by rough play towards the closing stages.
Undercutting by Argonauta players was frequent and only once was a player pulled up for this dangerous practice, while deliberate obstruction and tackling on the wrong side were also very common, although not one player was penalised for this infringement.
The Kowloor Indians were the prettier team to watch and Pyara Singh is certainly one of the finest players we have seen here for the past two seasons. His neat passing and wonderfulį ball control left the Portuguese attack floundering time and again, and but for a lack of support, the Indians would have won by a much larger margin..
