HERO OF UNIVERSITY RUGGER ENCOUNTER MAYHEW CONTRIBUTES TO A GREAT OXFORD VICTORY.

(By Trevor Wignali) ·

A lanky young fellow named and the knack given only to a few Mayhew, hailing from Haileybury, of being dead on the spot when the was the hero of the annual Rugby bouncing ball is looking for some

one to grasp it. Oxford and Cam- match between bridge Universities at Twickenham recently.

He had more to do with the big and unexpected victory of the Dark Blacs-than-any-other-individual

Oxford won by one converted goal and four tries (17 points) to one dropped goal (4 points), and it was in keeping with the result that Mayhew scored two of his fifteen's

tries.

Very few on the ground bad heard much about him until he dipped his tall form into the serums, He was one of Oxford's back row forwards, and consequently a skir- misher, but the match had not been minutes before in progress many the question: "Who's Number 157" was being heard everywhere.

UNKNOWN TALENT IN THE FLEET Navy's Excellent Show Against Hongkong C. C.

(By "R. Abbit")

In view of the great difficulties with which the Navy were faced, I was particularly glad to see the excellent show they made against a useful team of the Club on Saturday last. I have always maintained that there is a lot of talent going about in the Fleet that does not get dug up until an emergency occurs.

With the but I see that the two gentlemen, whom I had tipped to carry the baby, actually made 108 runs out of the 147 for eight which were upon the score-bourd when stumps were drawn, but if none of the others got runs on Saturday they fielded excellently and Marsh struck
