T. WHITLEY'S OPPORTUNISM
The Royal Navy suffered their second successive defeat in the Triangular Hockey Tournament yesterday when they lost to the Hong Kong Hockey Club by three goals to one in a fast game at King's Park. The match, though speedy and interesting in parts, produced nothing very outstanding, chief features being the fine spolling work of Willie Reed at centre-half, the opportunism of T. Whitley, who scored two goals, and the gallant efforts of Lien- tenant Blacker and Commander' Billings for the losers. Lienten- ant Donald was brilliant at times but his stick work was rainer uncertain.
The game started at a rare pace and a breakaway by the Navy for- wards nearly brought about a sur- prise goal but good work by Reed and Bates relieved the pressure and play was transferred to the other side of the field. For a little time the Club-kept up the attack and the Navy were penned in their own half. During this period Divett, Bates and Whitley were prominent. but the latter. though, showing a nice turn of speed was not judging the ball very well and several pro-

Rather against the run of play at this stage the Club added a third goal when Whitley took the ball from a free hit and whipped in a pacy shot which beat McBride all the way. The Navy were not disheartened and Donald And Blacker in particular redoubled" their efforts, with the result that As a play never got one-sided. matter of fact the Navy team were probably getting a little more of the exchanges at this stage but they just could not score.
