CLUB WIN FIRST T.T. MATCH BY AN INNINGS
MCINNES OPENS HIS SHOULDERS
(By R. Abbit)
AS Saturday's close of play indicated, the Club yesterday won the triangular tourna- ment cricket match against the Army in a very comfortable manner, dismissing their rivals in the second innings for 102 to win by an innings and 29 runs.
TA. Pearce carried off the major honours
of the match, scoring 67, and in all, capturing 9 wickets for 37 runs! 1. McInnes helped to brighten yesterday's rather dull play with a sparkling innings of 40 not out.

The same team will represent the Army against the Navy with the ex- ception that Captain P. V. Williams | returns to the side and Whitley drops out. This will make a tremendous difference to them.

PLAYS PROMINENT PART IN CHINA'S VICTORY
WALES TO HAVE WORTHY FOES IN CHARITY CUP FINAL
YESTERDAY'S KEEN ENCOUNTER
(By "Veritas").
A huge holiday crowd at the Club ground yesterday saw China enter the final of the international Charity Cup, whon Portugal, were beaten by five goals to two. In several respects it was a typical “after the night before" game, both teams appearing rather lacksidasical. Neither reached top form, but the Chinese were the better team and deserved to qualify as Wales' opponents.
China did not get on top until the last Afteen minutes. Then, playing four forwards, they over- ran the weary Portugal defence] and riddled the net with three rapid goals.,
