Macao Provides The Better Hockey XI
Superb Defence Carries Day For Protuguese Colony: Hongkong Fail On Heavy Ground

DONALD MCNEILL of Oklahoma City climbed to
Kent the top and Miss Alice Marble of California remained there, albeit for the last time, in the national tennis singles rankings announced by the U.S.L.T.A.
IT WAS a thousand pitics that rain fell Former steadily at Macao during the forenoon of last Sun- Captain Killed day to mar to some extent the standard of hockey usually seen at the annual interport matchos.
In some parts of the field the turf churned up badly, and in others pools of water formed, but on the whole, the pitch did not play too badly. Most of us, however, were glad of the brilliant sunshine at 3 p.m. just prior to the commencement of the game.
There were some changes in the Macao team. R. Rosario was unable to turn out at right back owing to illness; Santos Ferreira took his place, and Trigo Silva was seen at left half. The Hongkong team appeared as published.
It was Macau who took the first goal after a few minutes. A: Airosa, who was playing well and tackling hard, despatched pass to Nolasco, and the right-winger sent in a shot which Benwell never saw.
The Pertuguese forwards set up many attacks and kept the Colony defence actively employed.
However, the home team gained a further goal when five minutes from the end. Albert Alrosa ran in to score from a rebound from Benwell.
