Hockey Club Side

GAIN DRAW

United Held as Many Games Are Postponed Only one hockey match in the Third Division was played yesterday afternoon at the Race Course owing to the grounds being under water. On ground 6, however, the United Club "B" and the Shanghai Hockey Club C's succeeded in carrying out their schedule which resulted in a tie of *wo goals all.

The United team had recently finished all of their games in the first round with an enviable record.

Its representatives won four games and tied two in as many starts. But yesterday the sectional leaders failed io get away with their tussle against the Club, although gaining a 2-1 advantage in the first half. In justice to the S.H.C, it must be admitted that the Club players did put up a fine showing and came up strongly from behind. Only lack of accurate shooting prevented them from springing a total surprise.
