ACCORDING TO the “Manila Bulletin," a civil suit involving P4,000 was filed in the Manila.court of first instance on October 30 by C. A. Barretto, Manila race horse owner, against the White Cross, Inc.; Miguel Romualdez, racing manager of the Philippine Racing Club; and Dr. Sixto Carlos and Jose Montes, judges. The suit grew out of the morn- ing daily double held on October 27 by the racing club under the auspices of the White Cross..

F. E. Lawrence, who now plays for C.S.C.C. 2nd XI, is perhaps the oldest active cricketer in Hong Kong to-day in the sense that this is his 26th sea- son of cricket in Hong Kong. Prior to coming out
