RECREIO & ARMY TOP OF SENIOR DIVISION

By "RECORDER"

As last year, Recreio and Army are again the early leaders in the Senior Division of the Cricket League--Recreio with almost the identical team they had last year and Army with a completely new one.

BOWLING MADE TO MEASURE

Here is the answer to batsmen who lament their lack of practice against all types of bowling. This robot bowler, which is worked off batteries, will send down balls from slow to fast medium pitched on any length (including the half volley) desired, and can also turn an off or leg-brenk.

The variations are obtained by a number of switches; or the mechanical arm which jerks the ball down the pitch can be left to bowl 15 balls of exactly the same type.

The cricketer seen demonstrating the machine is former England bowler Alf Gover, who states that the machine produces much better bowling than is usually seen at net practice. Cost of the machine is £250.

Fifty Deaths In Boxing

In The Last Four Years

London, Oct. 23.-Demands for new legislation and stricter medical super- vision in boxing may be the sequel to the two recent deaths of boxers following fights in the United States.

The death roll in boxing, as far as can be ascertained, totals 50 in four years, and the noble art is in danger of becoming known as a brutal sport.

"A sacrifice on the ring-altar of the most brutal game that 'sport' has ever imagined and adopted" is how the Vatican City newspaper. Osservatore Romano, described it in a bitter attack following the death of the Italian. Enrico Bertolk. "Boxing traches to novic force, to esteem the stronger, to honour the blow which strikes, befogs, crushes the brain," the newspaper added.

England's Hopes Are Higher For A Free Trip To Rio

London, Oct. 23.-The win by England over Wales last week pleased none more than the treasurer of the English Football Association. For not only did this success put England one step nearer to Rio de Janeiro, where the World Cup finals are taking place next July, but also one step nearer to getting a free trip to South America.

The sum of £5,000 is at stake. This is approximately what it will cost to send the English team to the finals,

If they win the United Kingdom Championship, they will get the trip to Brazil for nothing as all expenses will be paid by the Organising Committee.
