L. ROZA PEREIRA UNPLACED IN 440

TWO BIG UPSETS IN COLONY INTERPORT SWIMMING TRIALS

E.M.MARQUES BEATEN

IN 'BREAST-STROKE LAWRENCE UNDER DOCTOR'S ORDERS

(By "CRAWL")

TWO sensations occurred at yesterday's first Colony Interport swimming trials, when E. M. Marques, the Colony breast-stroke champion, was placed third in the first heat, and Lionel Roza- Pereira, could only secure fourth place (in 6 mins.) in the quarter-mile heat, which was won by A. A. da Roza, by 10 yards.

The swimming on the whole was disappointing, although the first heat of the breast-strokers was very exciting, the three swim- mers being separated by touches. Marques led all the way in the first heat and was only overhauled at the third and last turning. He then swam neck and neck with Enrique Chan and Fong Chung- yu, but was beaten at the wall by a touch.

The second heat of the breast- stroke event saw Oliphant secure a big lead over the two other swimmers, using the butterfly- breast-stroke over the first 50 yards, but this sapped all his strength and although he won by 3-5ths of a second from Nazarin, I am sure he would have done much better had he used the ordinary stroke.

The 440 Yards free-style saw all four swimmers, L. Roza-Pereira, A. A. da Roza, Lieut. J. M. Calvert and Robert Chan level for the first 100 yards which was covered approximately 71 secs.

Craigengower gave an impressive demonstration of their strength in beating quite a useful team in the Civil Service by the maximum margin, while C.R.C., the other potential title-winners, only conceded half a set to the Hong Kong Cricket Club on the latter's courts.

South China gave a good show.
