KTORAS LOSE.
“A fairly good turn out of spectators on the Happy Valley diamond witnessed the Filipino nine trounce the Hong Kong Baseball Club in the senior divi- sion of the baseball league on. Saturday,
Although the Club drew first blood in the first inning, they never at any stage of the game looked like winning. The Fill- pinos scored five in the next three innings and, by clever work on the field, conceded nothing to their opponents. The Club field- ing then began to slacken and, at the end, they went down by seven
runs.

Sir Ernest |Holderness, the well-known ama- tour" player, writes: The religion of a golfer is, I fear, matter somewhat outside my field of criticism, But the suggestion seems to overlook two matters, (1) the rush to get a atacting time on a crowded Sunday morning, and (2) the diversity of religious be let-to-be found among members for the same club.

SUGGESTIONS FOR SOLVING CROSS-WORD PUZZLES
Start out by filling in the words of which you feel reasonably sure. These will give you a clue to other words crossing them, and they in turn to still others. A letter belongs in each white space, words starting at the numbered squares and running either horizontally or vertically or both.
