L. Cpl. Farmery (Lincolns) was the only Hong Kong com- petitor to secure a place in an event, he ran particularly well to secure a second in the Half Mile. Taking the lead from the start, he held his place until close on the finish, when a brilliant sprint by Oochi gave him the verdict by about two yards.

L. Cpl. Farmery's effort was the more commendable in view of the excellent team-work of the Japanese. They each took the pacing for a spell, nursing Aochi to enable him to make the win- ning sprint.
