This is their third defeat in four league fixtures and, unless agreat upheaval follows, they will never catch the leaders. Had it not been for O. Rumjahn's lanings, they would have cut a sorry figure. The team is practically the same as last year's with the exception of Rumjahn and Arculli who were doing battle with the seniors, but somehow or other they have not made any great show. By winning, the Civil Service remain at the second position in the league table. Their side of the game was con- spicuous for the part played by Sara and Harper, the bowling and batting mainstay.
