Veteran Provides Treat

The best part of the encounter was the first three chukkers and it Was indeed a treat to see the popular veteran Jacques clu Rivau back in the saddle and hitting the ball saquar" and with good length. Despite his two years' absence from the galloping game. he appeared to have lost none of his pretty stickwork. His beautiful long-shots paved the way for several of the side's ventures into enemy territory.

His efforts were not in vain, especially in the last chukker when either Henry White or Chris Moller was at the receiving end of -.his passes. More than a glimpse of his former prowess was seen in the third chukker when, after clearing an almost certain goal, he carried the ball up the entire length of the field with nice long shots and provided a worthy climax by scoring at point blank range.
