PENTANGULAR TOURNAMENT

THE CHINA MAIL, MONDAY, DECEMBER 13, 1954.

DIVING

ARMY SCUTTLE THE NAVY AND CLUB FIND THAT LUCK IS ON THEIR SIDE

By "PAK

LO"

On Saturday afternoon at Sookunpoo the Army scuttled the Navy and the Navy's chance of becoming the Pentangular winners this year when they beat them soundly by 14 points (2 tries, 1 goal, 1 penalty goal) to 3 points (1 penalty goal).

Following this the Club had luck on their side when they overcame the Police by 8 points (1 goal, I try) to nil. On Saturday morning the Navy's two centre threequarters, Hewitt and Lloyd, both reported sick, and the Navy, despite all the available manpower, had to juggle their team around to get two new centres,

Stewards Must Probe Into New Hurdles

The new brush hurdles are in the experi- mental stage and alterations may be necessary— but I am all in favour of these new obstacles. Tim Molony suggests that a better test would be pro- vided if the height was increased six inches and sloped at a greater angle.
