first game for the Kotewall Charity Cup was played at Caroline Hill yesterday be- tween the Army, the holders, and the Navy, and after 90 minutes of very evenly contested ex- changes the result was a draw, both sides scoring twice.
The playing conditions were far from good, the pitch being greasy, and further rain during the second-half did not improve matters, but the Navy were the first to become accustomed to the heavy ball, and twice held the lead, their first goal coming after Baldry had missed a penalty for the Army.
In defence the Navy were very sound, Nicholson and Wolverson making up for rather weak tackling by confident and powerful kicking, whilst Hayman, în goal, was an alert custodian and brought off many exceptionally clever saves, including one from a penalty-kick-

THE bowling of Lt. C. C. Garthwaite, who took
Nets for 38 runs in the course of
17.1 provided the outstanding feature of yesterday's Interport Cricket Trial at the Kow- loon Cricket Club.
The last occasion on which a local bowler performed this feat was in the league game between the Indian RC and the University last season. when F. D. Pereira, the Colony's fast bowler, claimed all ten University wickets. The feat is without parallel in either Interports or Trials
Keeping an immaculate length on a firmer wicket than was at first expected and being able to make the ball “kick." Garthwaite had all the opposing batsmen guessing, with the exception of Alec Pearce, who played one of his best innings in Hong Kong while scoring 39 out of 62 in 73 minutes.
