(By "Bingle")
Twenty-nine safeties off the easy offerings of five Royal Scots, plus nino bobbles, cost the Jocks the first baseball game played against the Royal Engineers, 36 to 5, when they met yesterday at Murray Parade Ground. In- cidentally, this is the first base- ball game played in Hongkong by two British regiments.
Starting with four runs in the Resi canto, the Scots looked as though they might put up a better showing, with but the Sappers came back twenty-two runs on sixteen hits in the same inning to salt the game away on Ice.

There weren't so many considering the fact that only about three of the Scots had ever played this sport before, but their pitchers couldn't find the plate while their batters, were swinging at all the bad ones, as well as the good ones. Catcher Cook allowed fifteen passed balls, while three hurlers had six wild pitches chalked up to them,
Two double plays were pulled, off by the Sappers.
