L. Lloyd has obviously had previous experience and is proving a most ro-) liable lead--though he was not up to his usual high standard for this game: against Taitoo. Gordon Haigh, second man, whom I believe had his first taste of the game when playing for the York- shire Society when stationed here some years ago, is very steady and excelled himself in the match under note, Ho never wasted a wood throughout the game.

With the other two rinks down nearly all the time, he set his mind on carrying the side and concentrated almost entirely on scoring rather than protecting his smaller counts for freezing his assets as one might say. On occas'one when he could easily have put stoppera in, he preferred to add ono or more, and this policy nearly, paid, for at the last head, thanks to his big

GLANCE at the cards for the Police and Kowloon Dock game gives me an opportunity to ask Number Twos-- once again-to mark them correctly. I emphasise that the names of the home team should always be on the left side of 6-17 to win by a couple of shots after of the card-this is done in only
