They, with Recroló and L.R.C., are now the leading contenders for the honours, and a playoff between two of these three teams seems more than likely."

Pope won the match for the Police on Saturday as a result of a splendid Innings of 49. Without his contri- bution, which was the outcome of some free and well-timed batting, Police almost certainly would have
