COMMENTS.
Every sympathy will be extend ed to Shanghai in their debacle. They took their defeat in the true sporting spirit. But, on the day's play, they were completely dwarfed by as fine a combination that has represented Hongkong for a long time.
Honours of the day undoubtedly went to Green, Hongkong's No. 3, with Ferguson a close second. Atkinson earned his place as No. 1 and Clark's display silenced the critics.
