SELECTORS OVERLOOK NOTABLE PLAYERS

›(By “Bully-Off")

The selectors have nominated teams for two hockey trials in preparation for the forthcoming Interport with Macao, and they appear below. It has now been re- vealed that Shameen are unable to send a team down for the series, and the Interport will be confined to matches between Hongkong and Macao. The trials teams chosen are: Whites Pte. Hollingsworth (Lin- colns); Sub. Taj Mohamed (Punjabis), P. Singh (Radio); W. A. Reed (H.K. Club), H. J. D. Lowe (H.K. Club).

Llout. Revenhill (RA); S. Color (7.M.C., Lieut. Garthwalte (R.A.), G. F. Lammert (Y.M.C.A.) Wass (Police). S. C. Archer (H.K. Club).

Normally he is streets ahead of either S. MacNider or E. II P. White, but under the circum- stances it is perhaps a question of "Beggars can't be choosers."
