For a time during the opening stages the Blue and Whites made a fair chal- lenge to the much changed Army side, but as goals started to come they went to pieces and towards the end goalkeeper Jones alone was offering any reasonable resist

After leading 1-0 and then missing a penalty, Wales were held to a 1-1 draw by Ireland in their international football match at Ninian Park here tonight,

Wales, who have never benten Ireland in five games at Ninian Park, should have made sure of victory in the first half when they dominated the game.

Their only goal netted by left-winger Roy Clarks, of Man- chester City, in the tenth minute, was the result of a magnificera rus by John Charles, who brought the ball from his own

Visiting Shangri-La Side Beaten 5-3. In Farewell Appearance

By "TIME OUT”

Playing inspired ball before a large crowd yesterday, the Combined Europeans unleashed an eight-hit barrage on Shangri-la hurler Wisdom to bring home a nent 5-3 victory, thus avenging the whitewashing the Chinese side suffered on Monday.

Winning burler Vic Fedruco turned in a fine performance on the slab, limit- ing the Shangri-la sluggers to four scattered hits, to cop his second triumph against this formidable squad. It should be remembered that Vic was the winning pitcher on Sunday last, when the Shangri-la nine bowed to the Association's Selection 1-2.
