WHAT I THINK OF THE INTERPORT TEAM

INCLUSION OF

REDMOND A BIG SURPRISE

WEAK ATTACK

PEREIRA BETTER

CHOICE

Since my notes appeared last week, the Interport Selection Committee have sat in solemn conclave and have selected the Colony XI to do battle against Malaya on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday next. While there may be one or two sur- prises in the team, it is on the whole quite sound, and one which promises to justify the confidence of the Selection Committee.

As han already been annouced in these columns, the following players, have been selected:-H, Owen Hughes (Capt.), G. S. Dunk- ley, T. Redmond, P. V. Williams, A. R. Min, T. A. Pearce, E, R. Durekiti, E. C. Fincher, F. Goodwin, A. C. Hallion and C. C. Garth- walte.

It will thus be seen that we have

a wealth of batting talent, and there are no fewer than eight bowlers, all of whom are capable of taking many wickets. And it is also a good fielding side-at lenat on paper. ·

THE DIG SNAG.

Here's Where Washington went into the lead in the second game of the World Berles-Goose Goslin's home run in the third. Goslin, smiling, is shown crossing the plate. Also shown are Catcher Mancuso of the Glants, Umpire Mortatity and Heinic Manual, who followed Goslin at bat. This run gave Washington a lead until the sixth-when O'Doul went to bat as a pinch hitter.

But with all these advantages, I feel that there is something missing. True, we have six all- rounders in the side, good batsmen and good bowlers, but when one analyses the bowlers, one will find, hs I was complaining last week, a and lack of variety. Goodwin, Hamilton, Garthwaite and Duckitt' are more or loss of the same type, and now. Redmond has been added to increase the list to five.

ALTHOUGH it was hinted when the Hongkong Hockey Associa- tion was first mooted that it would sorve little or no useful purpose, its activities since inception have given the lle direct and have more than justifled its existence.
