The last game of hockey sponsored by the Shanghai Hockey Association wag played at Kigochow Parl: yesterday afternoon when the President's "Eleven defeated the Vice-President's Eleven by a score of two nil.
Better defence on the part of the winners enabled the team to come out unscathed while their forwards applied the necessary pressure in the pinches and won rather comfortably. Throughout the contest the work of Pate and Fonseca proved a constant menace to the Vice-President's forwards who time and again were turned away in their raids. For the attackers, Davies of the S. M. Police was the hero of the: game, scoring both goals in the first period. The lew-officer played a scintillating tussle in the resuming period and was very unfortunate in not netting one or two more goals.
In justice to the losers, the team deserved to find the net at least on two occasions, Richards and Johnny Fonseca each had the glorious chance to tally but they failed to make proper connection with the ball.
