Y. M. C. A. HOCKEY TEAMS
TOW!
All First Division games should be evenly contested, but the outstanding game should be at Boundary Street where the Police team are at home to South China. “B”.
Police have made one change from the team which drew with Royal Scots last week, Pile coming into the team in place of Hogart who has not yet become accustomed to local con- ditions.
South China encounter Royal Scots at Sookunpoo and though normally the Chinese should win comfortably. Royal Scots should give them a good game. Last year the Scots drew with them at Sookunpoo.
Middlesex, on last year's form should beat Club, who have been very un- fortunate since the start of the season as several players have suffered in- juries.
SUNDAY'S GAMES
On Sunday, strengthened by the in- clusion of A.V. Gosano, St. Joseph's meet Eastern at Caroline Hill and here a good game should be witnessed.
In Second Division a good game should be witnessed between 30th R.A. and Ordnance. Both sides have several good players, Flanders and Guy from the Gunners and Munton and Emberson from
Rides, Ordn-
ance.
The following will represent the Y.M.C.A. in hockey matches to-mor-

MOUSE OF NORDƏ DAY GIR
BOOTH
OLD
1
K's the mellowness of BOOTH'S Dry Gin that makes it so much to be desired in cocktails. Such mellowness comes only from treble distillation and maturing in sherry casks and BOOTH'S DRY is the only GIN which receives such care in its mak- ing. It is not to be wondered at that the 1st prize Cocktail in the Inter- national Cocktail, Competition was made with Booth's Dry..
