The championship was last played in 1936 when 41 entries were received. This year's entry of 34 players is therefore considered very good in the circumstances. From the 1996 results it will be seen that A.
Ricketts is competing again this year; álso K. M. Cumming, who was runner-up. D. R. Glass who tied for the third place is also playing. G. D. Nicholl and W. N. Gray who were absent from Shagghai for the 1936
Championship have entered. Among new entrants are Chaplain B. B.
Markam of the U. S. Marines, Capt. C. C. Coffman, also of the U. S.
Marines, Major B. E. Kirby of the Durham Liglt Infantry, and Pay Master R. M. P. Skinner of the British Naval Office. Two entries from the Recreation Ground Course C. V.
Ben Fuller, ace hurler of the Sec-and Battalion, fairly justified himself by showing just how strong he could be when he was given adequate support like he had yesterday by the best that the rest of Shanghai could muster. He went the distance and struck out no less than twelve batters.
Lefty Orzech, who pitched the First nine to victory in the league, found himself in a precarious position and could not help but become somewhat generous, granting no fewer than fifteen hits and five walks, He was by no means disgraced however, because he was facing nine heavy sluggers, none of whom made below the 300 mark in the past league's batting averages.
