Seven More Ladies Chosen For Interport

THIRD TRIAL HELD

AT KING'S PARK

YESTERDAY

(By The Pilgrim") -

The Third Ladies' Interport hockey trial took place at King's Park yesterday morning when the Probable Inter- port XI defeated the Club de Recreio Ladies by three goals to nil,

Four quarters of 15 minutes' play each were played, with changes made after every quarter. After the heavy rain during the previous evening, the ground was slippery, making it very dimeuit for good ball control. Never- theless ploy was Interesting through- out.

Out of ten forwards on view, ufter seven were definitely chosen the game. They are as follows:

Mr. Burnett (right wing), Miss B. Harker (inside right), Mrs. Read (centre forward), Mrs. Dalziel (l- side left). Min M. Westcott (left wing), Miss M. Booker (inside right) and Miss J. Greig (centre forward).

Though no goals were scored in the first quarter, play was the best and most interesting. The forward line of Mrs. Burnett, Miss Harker, Mrs. Itead, Mrs. Delzlei and Miss Westcott the played well and did most of -attacking. The Harker-Burnett com- bination made an ideal right Bank partnership and so did Mrs. Dalziel and Miss Westcott on the left. Mrs. Read was noi too brilliant a lender but she was always trier.

Mrs. Ackroyd was seen in place of Mrs. Dalziel at inside left and Miss J. Greig relleved Mrs. Burnett on the right
