By "TIME OUT”

With three titles decided, this week's softball card features only four matches as the final games of the Men's Senior Leagues come on for decision. Marking time in anticipation of their return clash for the Senior "A" title, the Braves and Saints round off their respective sche- dules against the Pandas and South China respectively.

In the other Senior tussle featured, the youthful Blackhawks, standing secure- ly in third place, crom bats with a contingent from the US Navy in tomorrow's curtain-raiser.
