THE TIMES SATURDAY MARCH 5 1960 PETO IN TWO FINALS At this Stage Poto Вид то the withiran from Competition as he har sulled a muscle in his shoulder Captain Rayner 2 in the Anu Ski Champuniships 196 INCISIVE RACKETS STROKES FROM OUR RACKETS CORRESPONDENT Second Lieutenant N. J. Peto ( 9th Lancers ) plays in both singles finals in the Army rackets championships at Queen's Club to - day . In the Combined Services singles he meets T. M. E. Pugh at 10.30 and in the major event , the Army singles , he is opposed to Captain A. D. Myrtle ( K.O S.B. ) at 2.30 . Myrtle and Pugh will also take part in the final of the Combined Services doubles , Myrtle partnering Major W. R. H. Brooks against Pugh and R. A. Eckersley at 11.30 . The final of the regimental doubles will be between the Royal Artillery ( Major J. L. H. Gordon and Lieutenant J. W. Knowles - Pfeiffer ) and R.M.A. Sandhurst ( Officer Cadet J. A. S. Edwardes and Officer Cadet M. L. Dunning ) at 3.30 . Knowles - Pfeiffer , who has a flair for competitive play which seems to bring the best out of him , fell a victim to Peto in the Army singles yesterday , but unhappily withdrew from the Combined event because of badly blistered feet after a strenuous week . This was doubtless right because of his commitment in the doubles . His affliction , however , in no way detracted from the merit of Peto's success , for Peto was far the more incisive of the two , both in service and in stroke , for all Knowles - Pfeiffer's sparkling repartee in the second and third game . Services FORCEFUL HITTING Peto gave emphasis to this later in beat ing Nelson in three games , cutting the ball down crisply to a length with straight hit ting ,. the essence of singles . Nelson hit out forcefully on the backhand . notably in the third game , where he led at 14-8 and then at 14-12 , but in trying to main tain the pace Nelson put too many balls . full pitch on to the back wall , to be killed by Peto's well cut stroke . Myrtle was impressive against Mesquita , also winning in straight games . Myrtle is an object - lesson in close scrutiny of the ball , which brings him great consistency , allied to quick anticipation and sound , unhurried movement about the court . He seemed always to be in the right place and in full control , so that if Mesquita was allowed but few points , each one was surely earned . Results : ARMY SINGLES .-- SEMI - FINAL ROUND . - Capt .

LIONEL DAWSON , Daily Telegraph Hunting Correspondent CIRENCESTER , Wednesday . FORTUNATELY the weather relented somewhat to - day , the wind having dropped and the rain reduced to an occasional drizzle . As a result the course dried up very quickly , as it does here , making the cross - country going quite good , even if there were some slippery or holding 1960 . spots on it . Of such was the gulley opposite the house , perhaps the trickiest fence of the course . This fence was taken out and other modifications made in the course for the inter mediate class . Two of the opens were in trouble in the gulley , Celeste and Marlay Landmark , the latter going into it . Maj . Allhusen and Celeste have yet to establish a partnership , but I am sure it will come . Meanwhile they are leading rather adventurous lives . Well - designed Obstacle I came back from walking the course with a particular liking for No. 13 fence , inaccurately described , I maintain , as a " double oxer . " This was a sweet obstacle ap proached downhill in holding going over a seeded field , a small post and rails standing a few feet back from a broad cut and laid fence with a drop . All the horses I watched got over it well . I have noticed that they generally do if it be a well - designed obstacle such as this . It was jumped by both classes . my view of y In all I confirm my view of yester day that the course fulfilled its pur pose , providing a not too severe school for Badminton and excellent experience for intermediate horses .

Arthur on Blue Jeans , surely a horse of great merit . Close behind them for third place stood Mr. Morgan of Australia on Salad Days . MITCHELL BATTLES TO SECOND PLACE From T. D. RICHARDSON These two had an equal total and an equal time across country , and it was necessary to go to the dressage marks for a placing . I suggest that this process could be carried to the deci mal point differences for placing to which I referred last week . If the contestants were within a mark , say , or perhaps a little more , of each other , this would avoid these rather hair - splitting awards . ST .
