Hockey Match At

*

Sookunpoo

The Royal Scots side met and defeated a team from the Engine Room, H.MS. Cumberland, by five goals to two in a friendly hockey match yesterday.

The Scots began with a rush and after five minutes' play 'Fraser opened the scoring for them. A few minutes later Archibald, the Scots leader. brilliantly dribbled past three men to score with a fast shot that gave the goalie no cbance.

The sailors then came into the picture, Macgill shooting just wide with Waddell out of position. Thereafter the sailors tell off After some ne movements initiat ed. by Fraser. Henderson put hla side further ahead.

SAILORS SCORE

The sailors improved in the second half. and from a corner hit Lutte opened the score for them. About midway through the second half Cummings reduced the deficit from a centre from Rowe, but just before the final whistle Fraser scored again, putting the result beyond doubt.

The Royal Scots combined very well especially the forwards. Fraser was a hard working centre- ART. Among the forwards the best was Archibald whose PRESES to the wings were well judged and well-timed.

The losers were best served by their goalie. Chooker, who brought off many saves. Lutte worked very hard but was poorly support. ed by the wing haibes.

The teams were:-- Cumberland: Chocker; Atkins, Greenland; Bisley, Lartte, Freason; Cummings, MacGill, GW, Oxenbury and Rower

Royal Scots: Waddell: Thomson, Marshall: Dignan. Fraser, Niven: Whitzet. Henderson. Archibald, Graham and Scullion.

TSUIS OR RUMJAHNS

FOR THE DOUBLES?

By F. Mela

Who are going to be the double tennis champions this year? When I saw the Tsui brothers walking away with their match against Gosano and Remedios on Monday I formed the opinion that they would encounter little opposition. I am not so sure about it now, after seeing the Rumjahn cousins win their patch against Teddy Fincher and Wille Hung yesterday by scores of 6-2, 7-5.

It is true the cousins did not have everything their own way and that they were not up to their usual brillant form but I went away with the impression that if they had pressed they would have been

able to play better tennis.

The first set went to the cousins mainly because Teddy Fincher lost both his services but despite the score of 8-2 the set was more close- ly "contested than one would imagine. Willie Hung played "a brilliant gaue and he was, in my opinion, the best player on the court.

As usual H. D. Kumjahn was steadiness personified and seldom made a mistake but Sirdar was off altogether, netting too many of his backhanders while he was weak with his service and overhead shots.

PRACTICE FOR TSUI Tsui Wai-pui, 'het favourite for the singles title, had some useful practice when he met W. "Sander

whom he defeated in straight ets, the scores being 6-1, 6-0.

Taul was trying out his forehand drive which has improved beyond recognition since his trip to Europe and it is doubtful if there is any player in the Colony today to whom he cannot concede 15 and win.

On the other Sander should not be discouraged by this defeat.

hand the match should prove to be enormously beneficial to him insofar as experience is concerned and as he has the makings of a really good player, he would do well to put in more practice. I teel sure he will do much better during the next championships.

YESTERDAY'S RESULTS

Waited Six Years

to Play for 'Spurs

TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR always had an outstanding outside-left-r remember James Dimmock, then Willie Evans. Now they have two. Lyman and ler threaten to provide them with a problem as provoking and tantalising as that of Erentford with Eastham and Holiday. An accident settled it for the Cup-tie.

Haller was in first. He went off a bit so along came Lyman, from Northampton. Ho gut hurt, and Miller played so well while Lýman was away that he kept the job. It is an excuse for telling another of those queer stories of how accidents happen in favour of the best footballers.

J

LESLIE MILLER born at Barking, was a schoolboy International. He was an admirer of the 'Squrs, and hoped to play for them

one day..

While he was playing for a London business house team, Mr. Jack Tresadern, then manager of Northampton, signed Miller as an amateur, Miller got a Job in France, and joined Sochaux F.C., the famous French team. Stories of his clever football reached the man who now is the Bour manager. He went and saw him play. He was slightly astonished.to recognise the former schoolboy interns- tional he had signed as an amateur for Northampton six years before!

this Easy Way

Nothing can be more distract ing to a woman than ugly pimples, burning irritations or patches of blackheads or en larged pores on the face or neck. Some resort to heavy powdering in an effort to hide them; whilst others cause the skin

to`

become muddy looking, coarse and blemished by using the wrong treatment. .

To make your skin clear and healthy, to cleanse clogged facial pores, remove blackheads and pimples and to make your complexion clearer and smoother, use Cudcura.

H

Cleanse the skin with Cuti- Its cura Soap twice a day. luxuriant and mildy antiseptic lather is soothing and softening; washes away pore-deep dirt which causes blackheads, en- larged pores and ugly com plexion defects.

To rid the skin. of pimples, skin outbreaks, rashes or irrita- tions use Cuticura Ointment direct on the affected part before washing with the soap. Its anti- septic action kills genas, soothes and heals and quickly clears the skin.
