Navy Fifteen Much Too Good For Army In Rugby Tourney

(By Fly-Halt")

Navy easily overcame the Army at Sookunpoo on Saturday in the Triangular Rugby Tournament. Their threes had very little difficulty in breaking through the Army defence to pile up 32 points (four goals and four tries) without reply.

The success of the C.B.A. was dur mainly to thetr forwards, G. A. Fowler, S. A. Fowler and D. Smith, and their goals were the result of clever moves by the two Fowlers, who scored after 20 minutes, thougli there was on element of luck in the Arst goal, which should have been cleared by King, the R.A.F. goalle.

STILL SIZING UP

THEIR OWN SIDES

Many Changes In Batting And Bowling Orders

(By "R. Abbl(")

Judging from the cricket played on Saturday, I have come-rightly or wrongly-to the conclusion that Captains are working round with their teams to size up their possibilities before they settle a policy for their League matches, which start next month. It is the only explanation of the various changes in batting orders and in putting on the various bowlers. They may or may not be well advised.
