During one period in the second half the red-shirted Service players were irresistible. For fifteen minutes the Colony's re- presentatives were outpaced, out- manoeuvred and totally unable to contend with the lively attack sei up. The defence cracked before a series of cleverly initiated move- ments carried through by crisp accurate passing, and the Services put the issue beyond doubt with four splendid goals, overy one the climax to smart approach work and yet very simple-looking mere- ly because things were made so easy for the actual scorer.
