Fincher, on the 20th head of the second Bowls Interport match against Shanghai yesterday on the Civil Service CC. green, but even if he had said so on the majority of the heads, he would not have been very far wrong; for the three Shanghai front men had their opposite numbers completely outplayed, thus paving the way for an easy Shanghai victory of 30-10.

Hooking And Footplay Now Renounced By The International Board
The International Hockey Board has now definitely renounced hooking and footplay. The opinion, almost unanimous, is that these two doletions from the rules will be cordially welcomed by players and umpires alike. Of course, a coda of rules cannot be written for the first class section of a game only--the rules must be written to cover every section of the game. Hooking appears to have been nobody's friend and its final passing from the rules will surely be without a single mourner.
As regards the banning of the foot, clause (f) which reads as follows it remains to be seen whether this, has been put in: will scriously affect Junior club There shall be no hitting, hook- James when grounds are not paring, holding, striking at or Inter- ticularly level.
