Clean Sweep For Portugal SOME REFLECTIONS ON HONGKONG'S
University Girls Unlucky
To Be Beaten
By "TIME OUT”
My sympathies go to the University of Hongkong Ladies' soft- ball team which reached the Knock-Out Finals only to fall victims of some simply atrocious umpiring at first base when the undergraduates lost out by 6 runs to 8 to a South China team which will be the first to admit that it should have been a U victory all the way but for some astounding decisions by the man in brown, at a critical stage of the game... but a little more of this later. In the Men's International Portugal made it a clean sweep when the Lusi- tanians blasted relief hurler P. C. Wong off the mound with a morale- breaking quartet of extra-base hits in the Portuguese side's 11 runs to 6 victory over China.
South Chien were held down by the opposition in the top of tids incing. Although the U had two runners on bare neither one could hit the plate for the vital tieing run and the eleventh and tast inning opened score unchanged.
