FIRST SIM SHIELD MATCH
YESTERDAY.....
The Royal Air Force hockey eleven, who made their initial appearance in the Sim Shield Competitions yester- day failed badly against a Navy com- bination, who won easily by six goals
to one.
"The airship will cost all told £150,000, and on this cost basis the passenger fare for a Transatlantic light, would be £100. This com pares favourably with £125 charged by some ocean liners, and, in ad- dition, the journey from London to New York would be made in 49 hours."
