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 bat I see that the two gentlemen, whom I had tipped to carry the baby, actually made 100 rutes out of the 147 for eight which were upon the score-board when slumps were drawn, but if none of the others got runs on Saturday they Belded excellently and Marsh struck
