R.A. IN UNITED SERVICES SHIELD FINAL

ALLEN'S SPARKLING DISPLAY

(By "VERITAS".)
Although there was no repetition of the extraordinary assortment of joss, misfortunes, and exciting exchanges which characterised their first meeting, the replayed semi-final of the United Services Shield between the Royal Artillery and H.M.S. Hermes yesterday was not without incident and interest.
The Artillery made no mis

Allen demonstrated once again that he is the finest right back in local football. Poorly supported by Walker,

Gough was vigorvas in attack and Rodger gave every assistance. Wood was auffering from the effects of an old injury for three parts of the game and was not so forceful as usual, and whilst Seal still showed inconsistency he dropped across a sufficient number of first rate centres to keep the op- position worried.

His low volleying yesterday was a fine feature of a sound all court game, and his three-quarter court lobbing a lesson to all present.
PROGRESS INEVITABLE.
It would appear that Fujikura's lawn tennis progress to the top. fame and achievement is merely a
matter of time and experience. He has all the strokes, which are pro

There were some bright interludes 146 in yesterday's tennis, the doubles in particular giving the spectatorn some thrills, Hachiuma offered his countryman excellent support and played better than I have over seen W.kim before.
