TRIANGULAR CRICKET TOURNEY FOR XMAS

(By "MID ON")

Chief interest in cricket over the holidays will be centred on the Triangular Tournament match between Club and the Army, but by the look of things as they now stand (I am writing with duc respect to the Clerk of the Weather), it would appear that prospects for an enjoyable game are somewhat on the slim side.

Be that as it may, the Club should start off the Tourney with a win to their credit, with Stokes, Howarth, Owen Hughes, Pearce all playing in good form.
