Of Europe
In The Balance
Strasbourg, Nov. 30.
The fate of the proposed new statute of the Council of Europe was in the balance tonight after strong objections to the “automatic" enact- ment of agreements reached in Strasbourg.
The disputed article-which was severely criticised by British, Belgian, German and Nor- conventions wegian delegates-proposed that

The article added, "All terms and provisions of the

In line with this is the rather peculiar fact that both the Army and the Club have just managed to defeat the Navy by one point in their last matches, and ac- cording to some, both teams should have succumbed to the Naval forwards.

In the back division the Club have a very strong defensive line with behind them fullback of proven ability. The Club halves are without doubt the best in the Colony while the forwards are known for their never-give-up quality.
