PART from A. Bone and S. Strange, who have not yet de- finitely stated that they will be able to make the trip to Shanghai, everything has been arranged for the remain- der of the team for the trip.

The team sails a few days earlier

than anticipated, but this was unavold- able owing to shipping arrangements. The composition of the team has not yet been decided upon and will not be Anally settled until Strange and Bone have given definite replies.

Hossack Gets Permisslor

Hossack, of Royal Scots, who at first was not able to make the trip, has now been granted permission by his Battalion. When it was first known

that he would not be permitted to

make the trip Fox of Engineers was invited and he accepted.

R. A. has been invited to accompany

the team.

From the available talent it seems that the Interport tee n will be Moxham; Strange and Hussain; Guy, Forrow and E. Strange; T. Castilho, A. V. Gosano, Hossack, D. Leonard and Honniball or Moxham; D. Leonard, 8. Strange; Hussain, Forrow and E. Strange; T. Castilho, Fox, Hossack,' A. V. Gosano and Honniball.--

In both teams S. Strange has been included and if he falls out at the last moment further changes will have to be made.

It is a pity that Forrow has not been seen in any other position as Guy would be well suited for the pivotal berth.

Fowler Not Going

It is now definitely ascertained that Towler will not be available or the Shanghai trip but will be seen in the Interport team against Saigon.

By BEST BALL While most golfers learning the game depend largely upon the sense of sight to help them along, Earnest Jones, who has built up quite a golf following, advises that the "féal' is the thing. In- stead of trying, to pattern the stroke after some model, it might be better to try to get the feel of true swinging. Most of the good. players have this feel already, ál- though some of them hardly know what it is, and it is often buried under the advice to the beginners of a multitude of do's and don'ts. Yet the real conception of swinging is one that brings to mind relaxation and smoothness, comfort and rhythm; all recog- nised virtues of a good stroke yet striven for with such vigour average beginner, that the feri ness of effort defeate pose.
