With his captam suffering from an injured finger, sustained during the interport, V. Croome pluckily led the side, in spite of the fact that he had water on the knee and was in

POOR UMPIRING COMPLAINT

(By STICKS)

ONALD

BLACK,⠀⠀⠀ the

Threat of withdrawal from the tournament was made by the Kowloon Indian's Tennis Club at the monthly meeting of the Mamak Hockey League at the St. Andrew's Church hall last night when a letter D Movies jockey, arrived of protest was read out to the meeting complaining of the poor umpir ing in the games.

The letter was mainly in reference to their recent match with the Police Hockey team on the Police Training School ground, re- fereed by Mr. C. Mullins (RE.) and Mr. J. J. King (C.B.A.)

The umpiring of this game was referred to as "absolutely poor"

and the play as "a combination of hockey, foolball and boxing".

The climax, stated the letter, had been reached and unless better treatment was received in future the team would be obliged to with- draw from the League.

Mr. J. J. King, (C.B.A.) and Mr. D. Perkins (Police), who were

both present at the meeting, denied that there had been any rough play.
