WHY MARTIN?

It is difficult to read the mind of the selectors, and therefore one finds it impossible to tell whether they have dropped Mullane be cause they are satisfied that he is "ertain of his place, or whether they feel he has not proved himself,

Sent to the ropes under the force of a vicious right-hand punch to the jaw, Jack (Kid) Berg wasn't faring well when, as you se him here (at right), ha wilted before Kid Chocolate's onslaught. The Cuban negro rushed in to press his advantage, but the bell ended the exciting third round a few seconds after this picture was apped.

FTER all that has been writ-

ten 011 the Army-K.C.C. match last Saturday, it would be useless to dwell too long on this game in my notes this wook. Suffice to say the Peninsula team won and fully deserved the points, If only for the stout-hearted man- ner in which they set about the task of making 174 runs in about 90 minutes. What has been dea- cribed as a magnificent innings by A. T. Lay made this achievement possible and to him more than to anybody else the crédit was due.
