Struggle For 1st Place In Hockey League Keen
(By KIMBERLEY!
With Khalsa holding Club de Recreio, the leaders in Hockey Loogue, to a scoreless draw at Boundary Strock yesterday, and Army, who are second in the Table, gaining full points in a match against the RAF whom they boat by two goals to nil, the struggle for first place in the league is likely to develop into a needle affair.
+
Even at this stage, there are indications that cham- plonship honours will be between Recreio and Army. The former by reason of their strength, are slightly favoured.
