CIVIL SERVICE GIVES KOWLOON SHOCK

Fine Batting By Daniells

By “New L.B:W.”

On Tuesday I dealt with the first division games and there re- mains the Second League to be reviewed. I fear I don't know very much at first hand' about these games and most of the following in written from notes supplied by players or spectators.

The two most remarkable games were perhaps those between Kowloon, last year's champions, and the Civil Service; and the Uni- versity and Police. Kowloon declared at 142, to score which they had lost only Kenneth Baxter's wicket, and were then beaten by eight wickets. W. Mulcahy, who is a very much better bat than his recent scores would seem to indicate, opened with Baxter, and both were soon at home with the weak Civil Service attack. Mulcahy, in particular, was in fine forTIL

Baxter is generally by no means a slow scorer but, on this occasion he had to play second fiddle. He left with 21 to his credit and. wpen the declaration was applied, Arthur Dand had only 13.

It was announced that the, 1937- 38 edition of the Year-Book would be published during the Arst half of February, and that the new Issue contained, more than 100 additional pages, 8.5 compared with the previous edition, while special sections were appearing for the first time dealing with minia- ture-rifle and clay-bird shooting. as well as a special article оп "Bisley" and the Imperial Meet- ing; with photographs, maps, and tables. Owing to the fncreased size of the book, and to the num- ber of photographs which appear for the Arst, time, the cost of publication has likewise risen in proportion, and while individual full members, who are resident in the Colony, win receive, by the Rules of the Association, a copy free of charge, other persons may only do so on payment of $2.50, which price does not include postage.
