The above matches are the lust for the season, which will be wound up Antamok next week by the annual Seven-1- alde Tournament. This year entry has been larger than ever be- fore and there are five Navy, twelve Army, five Civillan, one Police and one side from the m.v. Mainyon Prince, at present in dock at Kow- loon. The sporting entry from the officers of the Malayan Prince appreciated. It is n pity that more "outside" teams do not enter in ihls manner. The Tournament becomes more interesting with dark horses amongst the competitors and no one is able to forecast the result.

It may be of interest to know that the second pony (Annabella) and the third (Murray River) in the Rooty-Hill Derby were also by the unknown sires and it was indeed a great pity that the suppliers did not or could not furnish the Club with the names of their respective stres for future references.
