SMASHING WIN FOR ELIOT HALL
ONLY LOSE ONE GAME
(By "Veritas").
Eliot Hall made on auspicious debut in inter-club badminton last night, when they visited St. Andrew's Church Club and won by the handsome margin of 14 games to one.
The Varsity players captured all nine doubles games and con- ceded only one of the six singles. In the doubles they scored 135 points against 50, and in the singles 61 points against 22. In only two doubles encounters did the Saints score doubles figures, and they could only amass 25 points from the other seven games.

Combining with much better understanding than the Civi- lians the Malaya hockey team created a good impression in their first game on local soil yesterday afternoon, winning by the odd goal in five.
