In forcing a win over the Navy, the Club not only annexed three points but have also enhanced their prospects of wresting the championship from the University. To date they have dropped two points as the result of a tie with the Indians. Their three remain ing fixtures are with Civil Service, Kowloon and C.R.C. On present form, no worries are entertained as to the issues with Kowloon and the Chinese. In view of their recent victory in a "friendly" Civil Service will go all out to win, the three points being absolutely necessary if they are to be in at
