Manila cagers beat HK "Possibles" in close game
Snow halts English golf championship
Deal, Kent, April 25. The second day's play in the English amateur golf cham- pionship on the Royal Cinque Ports Club's course here was abandoned today owing to heavy snow.
Borne on a bitter Northerly wind, the snow caused a stoppage in play an hour after early starters had set uut but when the full force of the storm broke, caddies were sent out as far as the ninth

The visiting Green Archer cogers from Manila won-
their second game in the Colony by beating
a Hong Kong "Possiblos" team by the close score of 50 points to 47 at Caroline Hill last evening.
The game which was fast and exciting from the opening minute was somewhat marred by the poor sportsmanship shown by part of the local spectators. With about two minutes to go and the score 47-46 in favour of the Hong Kong "Possibles" M. Araneta was fouled by Chan Siu-lok.
As he was taking his two free shots part of the crowd started to boo and barrock in order to put him off his aim, and the fact that he did mis netting both of the throws might be attributed to the lacl: of sportsmanship on the part of the crowd.
However in the last minute the visitors gave all they had and E. Decena ard & Bangoy each netted once to give their team a well de- served victory as the Hong Kong side broke down under the strain. The visitors played well as a team and each of them is worthy of praise for the sporting way in There have been a number of which they played. M.
