BY ROY."
PORTUGAL, holders of the International trophy, gave a disappointing display on Saturday last when they snc- cambed to the powerful UNITED STATES squad by the wide margin of 12 tallies to 2. As expected, CHINA had little difficulty in accounting for BRITAIN, in the other semi-final, and finished on the long end of an 18-3 count.
Providing a second game on Sunday, the United States Navy and the Hongkong All-Stars battled to an 18-16 decision in favour of the latter, after the blue- jackets had started off with a nine-run barrage in their half of the opening frame.
