The defences on both sides were acund, though Flack was hard put to it to save from Horner, and the lat. ter managed to find the net a moment or two later with a rising shot out of Flack's reach.

After the interval, both sides made raids into enemy territory, but the dofenders were always sure and on the spot, the Sirdar's half-backs being espeelally prominent. Flack had to concele a corner from Horner shortly before full-time, but no further score was made, although Sirdar were still pressing when the final whistle was blown.

Claims Expenses.

As far as the Shanghai Race Club Is concerned. it was stated that it had paid the prize in full, that is $224,000.00. It appeared that a cor- tain responsible party of the I.R.C. claimed that he is entitled to the balance of about $84,000 for certain alleged expenses in the procedure of the purchase, cashier of the ticket, A statement

of which

has

been issued to Koo on Friday morning when he went to the I.R.C. to collect the prize Not satisfied that the prize should be thus discounted, Koo refused to take the cheque affered him. It is said that Koo hud with him at that time a well-known Chinese lawyer, Paoli Tsiang, for he sensed before- hand that he would not collect the full amount due him,

Later on, that same" day, Koo wrote a letter, to the Stewards of the Shanghai Race Club, presenting the cnne before them and appealing for consideration. At the same time, a similar letter was written to the Stewards of the International Recrea tien Clab. Just what steps the ste wards of the two organizations will take has not yet been ascertained,

According te authentic.information, Koo was willing to pay about 20 per cent of the prize to

to the "party in- volved, but the fact that he has to pay about 40 per cent for the said procedure of purchasing and cashing the ticket dissatisfied and enraged him, and it was, said that he would. fight to the last for the principle of the ease rather than for money.

Bought for His Friend.

It is understood that Koo bought- The ticket for his friend, one Mr. Sih, wealthy banker from Singapore, who shared the ticket with three others. Sth and his friends left the matter entirely in the hands of 2 L. Koo.

winning ticket drew Wheat erott

CONTROLLED

REGULATION AND CONTROL

-are important features of these new Cookers. When the meat or cakes get burnt through the oven being overheated there is, in addition to the spoilt food, an actual waste of fuel-which means money. [

The "REGULO"device on these "WRIGHT" Cookers prevents this waste by turning the gas up or down as required and maintaining just the correct tem- perature necessary.

As with all gas appliances perfect control is easy. Just turn on the gas when cooking commences and turn it off as soon as the food is done.

Besides these features the "WRIGHT" Cooker has the latest type of single oven burner with bottom flue. All the hotplate burners are of the patent. "Rado" type which cannot be choked by overflowing liquids: The hotplate bars are so arranged that the saucepans get the full benefit of the heat from the burner, The all enamel finish (inside and outside) compels cleanliness and it is undoubtedly a fact that the "WRIGHT" is the most efficient and economical Cooker available.
