GREAT SURPRISE
The prosecution mentioned that the men from the Garrison Com- mander's office informed the Louza Police Station of Mr. Leu's arrest after they had already held him. Mr. Lieu. not knowing that the men holding him were public off- cers, shouted, which attracted the. attention of a Chinese pollee con-, stable from Louza Station.
Two representatives from the Garrison Commander's office ap plied for Mr. Lieu's handing over. but the Assistant Municipal Ad-
vocate said further investigations were necessary. No oficial des- patch had been received from the Garrison Commander, it Was pointed out.

GRIFFINS OF THE YEAR
The biggest disappointment in the above class of pontas was the very poor performance put up by Rosemary. This chestnut did not face the starter until the Hong Kong Derby, when she was made a favourite but could do no better
