HONG KONG RIFLE

ASSOCIATION

Spoon And Practice Shoots

SUNDAY SHOOTING AT KOWLOON-

On Saturday afternoon lust, when the tiong Kong Rifle Asso- eintion held its first week-end shoot' on the range at Stonecut- ters, by courtesy of the naval authorities, `a match took place between members of the Dockyard Rifle Club, and those belong- int to the Fourth Submarine Flotilla Ride Club. While the Dockyard team used exclusively "1914" rifles, two members of the Flotilla team used the rifle as issued, and were granted a handleap of 20 points as compensation."

At the conclusion of the shout at 500 yards only two points separated the totals made by the two teams, but at 600 yards. in a fading light, several members of the Flotilla Club found that lack of experience in firing under such conditions told badly against them and the match was won by the Dockyard Club with a margin of 38 points.. The Fourth Flotilia Club spoon was won by Mr. Lakeman, while that presented by the Dockyard Club by Lieut. Jenks, R.N.

Mra. Frank of No. 246 Prince Edward Road," reported the loss of gold wrist watch. The watch was valued at $100.

The first witness called was Dr. Newton, Medical Officer in charge of the Queen Mary Hog- pital, who said deceased was ad- mitted to the hospital at about 8 | p.m. en October 2. He had an in- Jury to his abdomen and was ad- vised to have an operation but re- fused. At 7 p.m. the following day he agreed and the operation was carried out about 8.30. p.m. Witness found he had a rupture of the small intestine low down on the right side of the abdomen and apparently the lower cavity contained a large quantity of the intetsinal contents. On October & his condition was somewhat im- proved but again deteriorated and he died at 8.50 a.m. on October. 9. GENERAL PERITONITIS

The post-mortem examination revealed no evidence of injuries externally except the opération wounds. The abdomen showed signs of general peritonitis, the skull and its contents were "nor- mal. The cause of death was a ruptured intestine followed by general peritonitis.

In answer to a question from the foreman of the jury, witness said he considered that in all probability the operation would have been a success had it been done immediately or shortly after admission.

Sergeant Reynolds, Royal Army- Service Corps, who refereed the game in question, said about ten minutes from the Anal whistle he saw deceased lying on the field of play. He biew his whistle and stopped the game and deceased was carried off the field. During the whole course of the game be saw no foul or rough play, in fact

the game was cleanly contested throughout.

Police Sergeant J. Shepherd said he was a spectator at the match. Midway through the second half a free kick was awarded the Police for minór "infringement. The Eastern players lined up to de- fend their goal, the ball was kick- ed, and one of the Chinese play- ers stopped it either with his chest or his "stomach. He kicked the ball clear, then collapsed. Witness was uncertain if it was deceased who stopped the kick.
