Tue R.A. team this year made a better fight for the Regimental Cup than they 
have ever done before. Unfortunately they drew against the 13th Hussars in the 
first round, but with any luck in the draw ought to have been in the final. 
The sides were as follows :— 
R.A. v. 137TH Hussars. 
J Captain Tisdall. Mr. Pedder. 
2 Mr, Peel. », Wise. 
3 ,, Aldridge. », Church. 
Back Captain Hanwell. Captain Maclaren. 
The 13th Hussars won the toss, and elected to play with the wind, thereby 
gaining a decided advantage. 
The regiment lost the first goal, but with the wind equalised matters before the 
end of the first ten minutes, thanks chiefly to Mr. Peel. 
At the end of the second turn the score was two all. 
In the third ten minutes, owing to the want of ponies, the R.A. came rather to 
erief, the Hussars scoring two goals to love. 
After this however the R.A. were at their best, and fairly out played their 
adversaries, hitting two goals, one a splendid shot of Captain Hanwell’s of about 
100 yards, thus making the score four all. 
Nothing was scored in the fifth turn, and so the last ten minutes was started 
with game still four all. 
Towards the end the R.A. ponies again rather failed, and the Hussars once more 
had the best of the game, and so scored for the fifth time. Just as the bell was 
about to ring they added one more, and so won by six to four. 
The regiment however were far from disgraced, as no other team could equal 
their performance, the 13th eventually winning the cup for the third time. 
Captain Hanwell was in his best form, scarcely making a mistake from start 
to finish, and it is chiefly due to his coaching that the others have learnt their 
places and played so well together. Captain Tisdall had the somewhat hopeless 
task of keeping Captain MacLaren out of the game, but he managed to do so as 
well as any other No.1. Myr. Peel as 2, played brilliantly, making some of the 
best runs of the whole Tournament, while Mr. Aldridge, considering it is his first 
year in first-class matches, may be fairly proud of his performance,
