The Cricket Club will be with- out Vic Labrum, who has gone on leave, but with Hubert Overy and Mulcahy to strengthen them, should not meet with many de- feats for the remainder of the season.

Although Yan-pin produced. number of outright winners with Tris service, Wai-pin, who has re- cently equited heavily-sheed delivery, gave the opposition must trouble. The ball was coming off the ground sharply and at a dis- conviting angle and the Hum- jahns, particularly S. A., had great dificulty in placing it, leave alone attacking it.

It was a fitting final, however, and if the RumJahns had won that fourth set as at one time seemed quite possible, there is no telling what would have happened,
