A new kind of spelling bee
Programme compered by Felix Felton

Members of the Forces are this afternoon to take part in a new version of an old parlour game. There are six a side, and each in turn puts in a batsman, who scores a run for each word which he spells correctly. When he is caught out, the opposite side send their first man in to face the bowling, and so on alternately. There are twelve wickets to fall in twenty minutes - but it's a 'Sticky Wicket.'
