POLICE AFFRAY WITH. BENCH AND BAR.

Official Victory.

Numerous legal luminaries ap- poared before the police at the Patani road ground yesterday charged on various counts.

N. H. P. Whitley pleaded guilty to allowing a cricket ball to rise into the air and to be caught by Reddick. The Umpires sentenced him to return to the pavilion.

Lim Cheng-Ean was accused of being lbw when bowled by Hunt at or about eleven runs, The accused denied the charge, pleading alter. natively that the wicket had no legal status. Lim Khye Song was charged with alding and abetting Hunt to put up too good an average. Sent to the House of Refreshment.

V. J. Mendia was accused of allowing his wickets to stray from the perpendicular. The Umpires found him guilty, and he was banished from the field,

Various other offenders were dealt with but the case against D. Wills was withdrawn.

The police were not to be denied, however, and soon put themselves on the offensive-defensive. Hunt was not only found not guilty but was given 65 runs out of the poor! box ax gratia. Roberts "failed to answer his subpoena, and was ex- cused but all the others were found guilty with the exception of Rod- rigo whose. prosecution had cost the enormous sum of 50 runs. In the interests of the State ho re- tired. Whitley and Mendis cross examined the witnesses: (we mean the wickets) very caverely.

The official court records show: That the Beach and Bar got 169 to the Policemen's 247.

Our players did not lose the challenge round against France.” Our Selection Committee last the match. They ignored all advice, and left out lan Collins from the doubles team. In other words, they' deliberately. Jeft out the best doubles player in Great Britain-Frenk Poxon.
