II. BOMBAY UNIVERSITY CONVOCATION - In a world in which civilisation appears to be fast disappearing it is almost inspiring to see the light of knowledge still held brightly aloft to brighten and illuminate the future. These are pictures of the convocation of the university of Bombay, the first Convocation under the Chancellorship of sir John Colville. The new group of graduates with cap and gown, many of whom were girls, go in to hear the Chancellor's address and receive from his hands that scroll which is to be the hallmark of their education. But it is not that piece of paper alone that will take them through the greatest struggle of life which awaits them outside the portals of that university. It is just one step in that direction. As the Chancellor said in his address "I hope that they will take with them from the university something that will make them aspire to emulate Shakespeare's definition "Scholar, a ripe and good one, exceeding wise, fair-spoken and persuading". During his brief stay, Sir Ramaswamy visited the Indian General Hospital and took the opportunity of talking personally with our men, bringing to them the gratitude of their own people at home and the recognition of their great contribution toward the Allied Victory. At a Reinforcement Camp with the viceroy's commissioned officers, Sir Ramaswamy inspected a Guard of honour. Sir Ramaswamy said that Indian troops were very highly thought of in the United Kingdom and in America, and added that they have brought credit and glory to their regiments and to their country

III. FOOTBALL INTERNATIONAL IN BOMBAY - Annual International Football Match between Europeans and Indians played at the Cooperage Maidan, Bombay, held in aid of the Navy Sheepskin Jackets Fund.

III. FOOTBALL INTERNATIONAL IN BOMBAY - Over 8,000 spectators witnessed the Europeans register a meritorious victory over the Indians in Bombay's Soccer International Football Match at the Cooperage Maidan. Mrs Herbert Smith started the ball rolling on this occasion for her pet cause the navy Sheepskin jackets. Over RS.11,000 were collected, and it is said that the football was so good that every piece of that money was fully worth it. Immediately after the kick-off the Indian side started with sparkling swiftness, but the Europeans' defence was superb with the half-backs showing up to great advantage. What looked to be a quick attack on the part of India resulted in an offensive on the part of the Europeans, and within ten minutes of the start, two goals were scored. The Indians' goal-keeper, Kadirvelu effected many smart saves that prevented the score running higher, and it was not until three minutes from the end that Aveyard of the Europeans' side scored his third goal, completing an altogether grand match for themselves. The Western India Football Association, the organisers of this Charity Football, collected a sum of over RS.7,000 from the gate takings for the common cause.
