H.K. LADIES TROUNCED BADLY

(By The Pilgrim") The Hongkong Ladies were badly beaten at King's Park last Saturday by 5-1. They flelded a rather weak team and the result, therefore, was not entirely unexpected.

Mr. Friedman, known to intimates BS "Good-The-Charley," momen. tarily startled local members of he profession with the magnitude of his scheme. But they recovered from the shock as he continued talking and admitted a flaw in his plan- money. But he had an answer for that.

I am not in a habit of throwing bouquets around as a rule, but Mrs. Lunson, in goal, I must say, gave a grand exhibition, Taking her age into consideration compared to most of the young ladies participating in local hockey, I still rank her as one of the best goal-keepers we have.

A new capture who will soon appear for the H.K. Ladies, I hear, who should is Mias J. Parkinson, make a good impression at right wing. She is an ex-C.B.S. girl, very well-known in junior hockey,

Miss M. Smalley will then prob- ably fill the inside right berth. With the inclusion of Miss Green and Miks Marsh-the latter was married yes- terday-the H.K. Ladies should be able to lay the foundation for their Cuer Clark Cup team. I have seen them only once in action this season and with a fortnight's practice ahead of them and despite the bad start they have made in friendly games, I am convinced they will soon have one of the strongest sides in the League.

The C.B.A. Ladies showed up well as a team and as I commented on their prospects a week ago. I shan't do so again. I still maintain, how- ever, that one or two changes required in attack and defence.
