PUT BRITAIN BACK ON TOP -NEW SEASON BRINGS NEW DETERMINATION

By TOM FINNEY

Put Britain back on top! This is a cry that has now become a crusade after the most disappointing year the Soccer countries of Britain have had within living memory.

England 8. Hungary 6...............Hungary 7, England 1.............Uruguay 7, Scotland 0. These results countenance no excuses and destroy every vestige of complacency, complacency which is the penalty of too many years of mastery.

Let it be sold in our favourį and new methods. Jimmy Let me say categorically: I that no one has taken the slump Trotter, England's trainer,` has do not think England failed in quietly.

Open Rinks Semi-finals Assume Quite An International Flavour

By "TOUCHER”

One all-Portuguese and one Parsee rink became the remaining qualifiers for the Colony Open Rinks Lawn Bowls semi-finals, which will be quite an international affair.

The Recreio quartet of Joe Luz, Rs ou! Luz, C. E. Passos and Johnny Ribeiro, regarded as the favourites for the title, easily upheld their reputation with a com- fortable 26-16 passage over their clubmates, A. A. Remedios, Jr., J. A. Victor, C. E. Roza-Pereira and A. A. Remedios, to qualify for the semi-final match against F. Francis, F. Howarth, E. Purvis and Alec Harvey.
