course, whether to promote all the seconds or to keep his original second and to up his frat team as best he may. My own view is that he has every right to play his second eleven as a unit. It was most unfortunate at the first eleven league matches could not be fixed before the begin ning of January, for it is now almost a routine that large numbers of the Navy leave us very shortly after the New Your. This however is not his fault and as I have said, I person- ally think he is quite justified in playing his accond eleven as it exist ed when all the professors were here und leaving the first to do as well us possible. I myself feel pretty sure that there is a bright side lo his trou- bles as I think it very likely that some previously unknown talent will be unearthed. Failing that, it looks as if Whitmarsh and Ogle will have to carry, the baby.

Ancient Tomb Thought To Be. Egyptian King's

Cairo, Jan, 0.

An enormous tomb has been discovered at Sakkara by Mr. Waller Emery, noted Egyptolo- gish. It is believed to belong to Menes, first king of the First Dynasty.

It contains a huge and valuable collection of pattery and slono vases bearing the seals of King

at

hand.

The exhibits include foreign and Chinese vegetables, fruits, cercals, eatlle and Chinese non-poultry,

In a foreword in the programme, the Rev. H. R. Wells writes that the items of good news mentioned last year had materially increased in number and quality, although the Association had not been able to do na much as it would have liked because of lack of funds. The Gov- ernment had kindly contributed u Frant of $2,000 each year, but the Association's funds still did not per- mit the engagement of more instruc- tora and an expert in developing the resources of the Territories,

The programme also contains an interesting, article by Major Howard S. Reed, agricultural and economic Planned engineer, who writes on Agriculture for New Territories.

The exhibition will be officially opened at 2.30 p.m. on Saturday by His Excellency the Governor, Sir Geoffry, Northcote, who will also perform the opening ceremony of the Association's new bullding donated by Mr. J. E. Joseph.
