CRAIGENGOWER GIVEN A LESSON BY NAVY

Side Dismissed Cheaply After Batting Order Had Been Chopped About

BRISK SCORING IN SOME OF THE GAMES PLAYED

(By "R. ABBIT")

The old maxim of captaincy that you should never mess about with your batting order until a game is won was strikingly illus- trated on Saturday last when Ernie Zimmern, after getting the Navy out for 118 put down his batting order very nearly in re- verse! Actually the order was changed as the Craigengower skipper went in when five wickets had fallen for ten runa!

But to get back. Fuller gave an, However, when he untled himself exceedingly hard chance to short leg from the knots which had developed off the first ball of the match and he was seen stili to be grasping the later might possibly have been ball. It was a brilliant cuteh ́but snapped in the slips; apart from these truth compels me to add that had two blemishes he played excellent he not completely misjudged the cricket for his 62 runs.

ORDNANCE DEFEAT POLICE "B"

In Hockey Tourney By Solitary Goal

A very poor encounter was wit- nessed on Saturday when the R.A.0.C. met the Police "B" on the latter's ground at Boundary Road in the Hongkong Hockey Associationt Tournament, and after a rather one- sided match the Ordnance won by a goal scored by Coughlan in the latter stages of the second half.

Playing on a hard ground did not suit the Ordnance forwards, and they never seemed to get control of

the ball when in the circle. They also spoilt many chances through short passing, when hitting the ball from wing to wing would have upset the Police defence; as it was, how- ever, they gave the Police backs the chance to clear their lines,

which they did in real good fashion.

The Ordnance were best served by their defence.
