ALEC PEARCE
Brilliant Iron Shots Carry Him Through
Marton And Hunter Fail Through Putting
(By ""B irdio")
THERE COULDN'T have been a finer day for golf than Sunday last when the Amateur Cham- pionship of the Colony was played at the Royal Hongkong Golf Club, Fanling. High clouds ob- scured the sun in the morning, and though the nip in the air disappeared when the sun broke through in the afternoon, conditions were still al- most ideal for the gamo.
T. A. (Aloc) Pearce crowned his sporting successes in Hongkong by taking the title, though from reports he had the narrowest of squeaks in beating both A. E. C. Marton and F. D. Hunter-the first named being one stroke behind and the second two.
Brilliant irons carried him through. Putting seems to have been the general weakness of theso top three. Pearce was a little uncertain in the morning though he sank several long ones nicely, but with Marton and Hunter it was a definite fail- ing. The latter missed at least three putts that should have gone down with one hand for they were only about foot long!

Hole in One
On October 23, when play- ing with Mr. P. S. Widdup, Dr. T. B. Dunn did the 13th hole, 180 yards in one stroke. There has been an epidemic of "Holes-in-one" at Hungjao this year, the total being
eleven.

If you want to learn to swing correctly at golf, here are the tools. It may be one thing, however, to swing the 571- inch driver, but it will be quite another to use the chained iron. It looks like a club out of Joe Kirkwood's bag.

FIELDING only 14 players, the Navy "A" XV held the Royal Army Medical Corps to 6-6 draw at Causeway Bay yesterday, each side scoring two trios.
Navy were not at full strength owing to manning exercises, and one or two new faces were seen in the ineup, aútstanding among them was Rubinson, on the left wing, who scored two excellent tries late in the Second half to even the score.
