TRIANGULAR TOURNAMENT PROPOSAL

Suggested Substitute For The Navy: Sappers Gain Another Victory

WITH REFERENCE to the Triangular Tour- nament, I suggested a few weeks ago that a toam from the H.K.H.A. might be substituted for the Royal Navy who are not participating this season. A further proposal has reached me from a Military source, suggesting that the Army be permitted to field two separate teams-one of Indians and the other of Europeans-instead of a mixed team as at present.

This, I think, is a brilliant suggestion, as the combined Army would be too strong a team for the Hongkong Club or the Association, and I would draw the attention of the Triangular Tournament Committee to consider the matter.

The games, if staged, should prove most interesting.

IN their League encounter at

King's Park last Saturday, St. Andrew's could only draw 1-1 with the Hongkong Ladies. The failure of both sides to score more goals was due to the in- ability of the players to control the ball on a very bumpy sur- face.

Though the Saints scored first through Miss H. Reid, their attack was never too impressive, Miss F. Wong, on the right wing, was the best forward on view, but her bril- liant centres often went begging as the others in the attack were never up to intercept them.

The defence, however, was re- solute, and none did better than Miss J. Wong, at centre half, whose first- time tackling and hard clearances, at times, completely subdued the Hongkong attack,

Miss West, at right balf, gave an improved displny, and Miss G. White, right back, was also prominent. I was very surprised at the poor form of Miss M. Koza, the left back. In the last two matches she has given hor partner very poor support. I do hope her lack of concentration in proves in the games to follow. Mrs. P. Bliss made a welcome return as

Decided Improvement In Play

(By "Fly-half")

YESTERDAY evening at the Club ground, a Navy team defeated Club “A” by eleven points (a goal and two tries) to nine (three trics) in a game in which the back divisions

Navy fielded a strong side which included a few of the Ist XV players, and credit is due to the Club players who stuck to their task manfully.
