yesterday that full scale resumption of the civil war was imminent.

As the featured novelty attrac- tion, Jimmy Pickard's Chinese Syncopators are a combination of mandelns, mando-cellos, bass viol, and the Hawaiian guitar in something new and refreshing in modern swing on strings.

The Syncopators have establish ed themselves wherever there is a variety stage, and are known through-out Britain, Europe and America. The title and character band originated in San of the Francisco in 1923, and since then has toured the world, and have been entertaining troops in the Middle East, India and the Far East since 1943.

The West Yorkshire Regiment band is well known to troops in the Colony for its work in Sun-

day concerts in England, and also

for dances both in the UK, and in Hong Kong during the month."
