Thrilling Repetition Of ARMY SPORTS Empire Games 110 Yards Freestyle Final

By ROBERT TAY

Australia's "human torpedoos" concluded their Hongkong tour yesterday before another capacity crowd at the Victorla Park pool in the same carnival spirit that has endeared them to Hongkong's swimming public since their opening performances on Tuesday.

Again no world marks were set, but for a moment yesterday, spectators whether they realised it or not, were treated to almost a replica of the thrilling 110 yards_freestyle final at the Empire Games in Cardiff on July 21.
