JOVIAL EVENT AT

SHANGHAI CLUB

THRILLING RACES

Elght thrilling events were stag- ed at the mid-week gala of the Shanghai Rowing Club, Inst week when a capacily crowd filled the natatorium to witness the races.

The feature event of the night was the ladies' tub race. This was on amusing race since the contestants must sit in a small wooden tub and row with only one oar, The result is that the tub keeps on turning round instead of gliding forward. Many of the damisela upset their tubs and the spectators roared with laugher at the funny antics,

Miss Elleen Hanimond did well to win the 50 yards free style event in 34 seconds, the time be Ing the same as the one register- led in the nien's final for the same

distance.

Two water polo tussles were played. The Police went down before a club team by six goals to nil while the Sardines were too good for the Sharks in the club longue and won by five goals to one, mainly through the good work of Sinclair and Lucas in the for- ward line.

Detailed results follow:

Seymour, who looked pale and haggard after the match, reveal- ed his closely guarded serret. He is a man of retiring disposition and would not mention is sick- ness for fear that it might look like making excuses for possible defeat.

"I had been in bed for 17 days, and had not played golf for a fortnight until I came to Roe- hampton on Tuesday. I did not think that I should be able, at that time, to play through the tournament. and I felt tired to- wards the end.

Seymour is probably the most consistent match winner in the country, and in beating, first, Al- fred Perry, of Leatherhend, in the semi-final and then Padghum he showed that he is one of the most difficult men in the game to beat.
