Singapore Terms For Interport Series
Urge For Invitation To Be Sent To Shanghai
QUADRANGU LAR SERIES
<BY STICKS).
Singapore are anxious to send a team repre- sentative of Malaya to Hong Kong, and have offered to pay their passage. They are, however, anxious that Shanghai should send a team to Hong Kong at the same time. At the moment they do not consider the trip worth while if they are to meet Hong Kong and Macao only.
Shanghai have, however, declined to send a team to the Colony and have invited the local Association to send a team North. Should the quadrangular serien be staged it will be the first time in the an- nais of Colony hockey that representative teams from Shanghal and Malaya will be seen in action here.
