Many Players' Away

In the meantime the attendance on practice days has not been exceptionally targe due to the fact that a good many cricketers are at present away from the Colony for the Summer vacation, but they are all expected back soon, and cricket at Pokfulam should be in full swing by

the end of the month.

The Sunday morning cricket matches that featured University cricket in the past have received a setback in that those of the cricketers remaining in the Colony for the holidays have had their time claimed by other activities.

"We hope to start our pro-1 gramme of matches for 1941-41 early next month," said Mahmoud. who added that already a few provisional fixtures have been arranged, these to be confirmed arrangements can be made for the use of the ground, the Tennis Club having prior claim during the Summer reason.
