THRILLING hockey was witnessed at King's

Park yesterday morning when the "Y" Ladies retained the Pearce Senior Seven-A-Side Hockey Cup by beating the Central British Asso- ciation Ladies by an only goal, scored in the se- cond half by Miss O. Dalziel, after a brilliant solo effort.

The outstanding player was undoubtedly Miss Anne Fowler, the "s" goal-kicking full-back, who saved her charge on five separate occasions when Miss Marie Smith had broken through on her own.

Miss Marie Smith was head and shoulders the best forward on display and gave the many spectators present an early thrill when she broke away on her own to send in a terrific shot from the right, which Miss Fowler just kicked clear.
