Navy Football Match. Despite the heat, Naval football enthusiasts played a strenuous game on the Dockyard Ground yesterday afternoon. The participants were the Forecastle-men and the Communica tions of the Hermes, in an Inter-part Ship's League. Foe'sle men won by five goals to nil, so that Communica tions remain at the foot of the League Table, which is set out bolow. Teams:

Forecastle-men. Buckingham; Oughton, Carey; Frost,

Bunham, Trimmings; Cousins, Longmire, Davis, Kay, Savage.

Communications.-Parkins; Applin, Clarke; Dover, Ness, Foinette; John- son, White, Williams, Palmer, Saund- ers.

Communications put in some pres- of the sure at the commencement game, but Foe'sle-men came away and sent in a number of shots that Par- kins did well to clear. Communica- tions took play to the other end again, but the forwards missed some really ensy chances of scoring, and their opponents once more made ground. Before the first half was ended, Davis opened the scoring for the Foc'sle- men with a good shot.

Parkins saved his side from further score suon after the cross-over, throw- ing himself full-length to save a shot from Savage, and clearing another when only half-risen. Davis even- tually added the next goal, running through the Communications defence and tricking Parkins into coming out of his goal, to tap the ball neatly the into the net. Langmire put an third goal, and the fourth came from his foot shortly afterwards. Just before the end, Kay got a nice goal, well-placed in the corner of the net.

The Inter-Part Ship's Table, up to date, is as follows:

Mr. Mukurji painted out that this was the first occasion that India had participated in Far Eastern Games but they were the hoping to compete regularly in

future. India intended to take her place in world sport, and the Far Eastern Games were a stepping stone to achieving that desire. It was, he the point said, important from

that Oriental relationships
