cal team made desperate efforts to wipe out the differenca They wen unable to make much headway, and the set finished at 21-11 in favour of Canton.
It was in the final set that the superiority of the Hongkong team asserted itself.
This set proved to be short-lived one, The Hongkong team kept piling UP the scures from the start, with hardly a break. As in the 150.00 previous sets. Po Sik Wai was the mainstay of the local $49.50 team. He was responsible for many tricky deliveries of the ball which ended with disasterous results for the Cantonites. The exultation of the spectators rose in proportion to the mounting of 132.50 the scores, With incredible re- galarity the ball was thrown 30.80 from hand to hand, each throw
being punctuated by the specta tors counting, One, two, three." Invariably at the count "three" the ball was precipisted over to the Canton side, when it had the
habit of URCILLY
