Keen Sport at the Annual Gathering ROYAL ARTILLERY PREDOMINATE Maj.-General Luard's Cup Won By Lt. Dangerfield especially in the only championship, the

Saturday afternoon was the second day of the Hong Kong Area Sports Board's fifth annual aquatic sports, when the finals were swum in the. V.RC. bath, providing keen, thrilling, and lively sport, in spite of the rain that fell during some of the races.

There was a good sprinkling of ladies and children whose en- couraging shouts to the lusty swimmers gave place for humour, especially in the Indians' relay race, which proved to be the fun of the afternoon's great sport.

The diving of Lt, Herbage, R.A., was exceptionally good, while the Army Boys' Handicap Race was won by J. Green, last year's winner, in 40 25 seconds.

Nan Crossan did well to win the Army Girls 50 yards handicap again. Her time was 45 1/5 seconds. Lance-Corporal Finlayson, of the K.O.S.B., was the stalwart swimmer j of the programine, winning the Small Units 150 yards Champion- ship Cup in brilliant style.

..

The Royal Artillery proved the "best of the lot," winning. the Ag gregate Cup with 66 points.

"Live in the Sea"

Before the presentation of the prizes, H.E. the General Officer Com- manding (Major-General J. W. Sandilands C.B., C.M.G., D.S.0.) delivered a short and appreciative, speech which he expressed

in

thanks to the Committee, who had, worked so hard for the excellent afternoon's sport, and also the Vic- toria Recreation Club for the fre quent use of their bath. He congra- tulated the R.A. on winning the Ag- gregate Cup, and said that they had; the advantage over the other regi-i ments as they practically lived in

IS INTEREST DEAD?

Very little attempt is being made to: terminate the Tennis League season,

"B" divizion, which remains to be de cited.

The "A" and "C" shields have been won by the Hong Kong Cricket Club and the South China Athletic Associa- tion respectively, and it is likely that the balance of the fixtures in these sections will be abandoned.

In the only match played on Satur- day, the Mitsui Bussan Kaisha defeated the European Y.M.C.A. easily in the "D" divisien, but this resuit has no bearing on the championship.

"B" DIVISION

On their own ground, the Mitsui Bussan Kaishu defeated the European Young Mea's Christian Association by seven sets to two.
