Prizes Are Presented To The Champions

The annual presentation of prizes by the Hongkong Ladies Hockey As- sociation was held yesterday at the Gloucester Hotel Roof Garden.

Pearce, the Association's President.

Mrs. Webb, Hon. Secretary, read a letter from Mrs. Pearce, who, in it, stated her regret at not being able to attend the meeting and gratulated the Hongkong team which visited Shanghai and the teams that had won the local compeitions..
