BEAT ARMY SOUTH 11-6

IN A TIGHT GAME By PAK LO

The Police very nearly repeated their previous week's feat, when on Saturday, after leading by eight points to three at half-time, they were narrowly defeated in a battle royal by the Navy who had to throw everything into the game to overcome the phoenix-like Police- men by 11 points (one goal, two tries) to eight (one goal, one try). At Kai Tak, the Club despite a twenty-minute spell in the second half when they relaxed, never looked like losing, and comfortably consolidated their place near the top of the Hexangular Table by trouncing the airmen by 21 points (seven tries) ́to nil.

The Club scored four tries in the first half for with their superiority in every department of the game, they could hardly do otherwise. Then, being the Club, they sinckened off at the first twenty minutes of the second half, and finally scored another three tres In the last ten minutes.

Practically all the Club players deserve mention, and in all it was a good practice game for the Club. Tries were scored by Browne (2), and one each by Penman, Addis, Howe, and Bennett,
