NOTES FROM TIDWORTH.-Lieutenant-Colonel H. D. Rowan, R.A.M.C., writes, September 25, 1913: "The cricket season is practically over, with the exception of the semi-final and final of the Hubert Hamilton 'Garrison Cricket Cup, which, weather permitting, after the termination of the Army Manmuvres, we have high hopes of winning. "Taking the season as a whole, and considering the duties to be arranged for, camping season, divisional training, manmuvres, &c., our team is to be congratUlated on winning so many matches. " Looking back we find that we played in all twenty-eight matches, winning twenty­ two, losing four and drawing two. Not a bad performance considering we are only a Company, and are scattered, and yet we have been able to hold our own with the different regimental teams. . _ " In the Garrison Cup ties, permission was granted for our side to amalgamate with Protected by copyright. the Army Ordnance Corps, which has added considerably to our chance of winning the Cup. " Our success is mainly due to the excellent -all-round work of our officers, Major L. Addams-Williams (Captain), Major W. L. Steele, Major R V.Cowey, Captains R B. Ainsworth and S. M. W. Meadows (Sub-Captain), and also of Corporal Cowx. The batting shows a great improvement on last year, no less than seven members of the team reaching a doublE! figure average. The brunt of the attack was generally carried out by Captain Meadows and Corporal Cowx (the latter only requiring 7 wickets to complete his century), supported by Corporal Boxall, Majors Addams-Williams and Cowey. "In recognition of 'services rendered,' the Commanding Officer, Major Addams­ Williams and Major Cowey presented three cricket bats for the' Best Batting Average,' 'Best Bowling Average,' and 'Most Catches,' which were won by Corporal Cowx, Lance-Corporal Boxall and Private Wickers, respectively. "A friendly match was arranged with the Royal Victoria Hospital, Netley, on August 28,. and a very nice day's outing was spent at Netley, The Tidworth party proved victorious by 177 runs. Unfortunately, at the last minute, three of our officers http://militaryhealth.bmj.com/ could not turn out owing to duty, but we borrowed a couple of our departmental friends to assist us.

AGENDA. To report the resignation of Major Douglas Lawson, who is proceeding abroad, and to elect a chairman in his place. .' To read letters from the Honorary Secretary· of the late R.A.M.C. Mess, Tempe, on the proposed- transfer of the balance of the funds of that mess, and of various articles of mess property, to the Central Mess Fund. To consider the advisability of joining contributions to messes in the case of subscribers to the Central Fund beiDg paid by this Fund either wholly or in part. To consider whether a grant· should be made to the Peshawar Mess to help it to recover from losses by burglary. To consider the question of assistance to the Rawal Pindi. Mess in paying off debentures. NOTESON GAMES. Cricket.-No record has hitherto appeared in the JourDal of the brilliant perform­ ance of Major H. B. Fawcus in the Army v. Navy Match last June. The following comment is from the Times:- " Mention must be made of the remarkable bowling of Major H. B. Fawcus, who took nine wickets for 32 runs. He is fortunate in being able to make the ball swing in from the off exceptionally late in, its flight. With a new ball and with the wind in the right direction he must be one of the best" swinging" amateur bowlers of the day for a few overs, and his astonishiDg success on the first day of this match certainly seemed to have had a demoralizing effect on the Navy batsmen yesterday, for even when his swing had left him they continued to treat him with the utmost respect."

His analysis read- Protected by copyright. O. M. R. W. First innings 9'5 3 11 5 Second innings 17'1 7 21 4 On October 5 a combined R.A.M.C. and A.O.C. team won the inter·regimental cricket challenge cup at Tidworth. The Corps was represented by Majors Addams­ Williams and Cowey, Captains Ainsworth and Meadows, and Corporal Cowx. Association Football.-The Aldershot team have started the season well in the Command Senior League, as reported in the Sportsman;- "The R.A.M.C. smart forward line gave the 1st Royal Berkshire Regiment a big shock when they scored six goals before the interval and five afterwards, and but for Private Hilsdon's goal.keepiDg would have doubled it. A forward line which included four crack runners, amongst them Corporal Prince, the Army half-mile champion; and good footballers with it, requires some holding, and the Berkshires, with three changes from last season's team, were incapable of doing this. Gilham (outside right) failed to score, but he had a big share in the goals, which were credated as follows: Prince (6), Osbome (3), Veitch, and Morris."

In.the first round of the Army Challenge Cup Competition the Aldershot team beat http://militaryhealth.bmj.com/ the 1st Battalion Scots Gnards by three goals to one. Rugby Football.-Lieutenants J. L. Huggan and R. C. Carlyle have been playing for the London Scottish, and R. Hemphill for the United Services. The Honorary Secretary would be glad to receive any notes on games which are not sent to the J otirnal under the head of local news from the various stations. In order to appear in the next number they' should .reach him not later than the 18th of the month. J. T, CLAPHAM, Captain, Hon. Sec.

121 ROYAL OOMMISSION ON SYPHILIS. WITH reference to the appointment of the Royal Oommission to inquire into the subject of venereal diseases in the United Kingdom, announced in the Press on October 29, 1913, it is understood that the question of the representation of the Naval and Military Forces of the Orown was fully considered, but in view of the fact that the subjects to be investigated are in the main civil rather than military, it was held that the interests of these Forces would be quite adequately and more properly repre­ sented by evidence than by a .place on the Royal Oommission.
