The Kowloon C.C. almost put it over the Chinese R.C.-2 in the "C" section, losing by the nar. rowest possible margin.
South China will have to be seriously reckoned with in the championship race in the "B" division as they appear to have got together a very fine team. The Club de Recreio and the Chin- ese. RC are probably the two strongest sides in this division.

E. Moora an Interesting other three innings were blanked. W. McKay tusale, South China losing by 8-10. The line-up was as follows:-
The winners would have won handsomely but for a costly error In the beginning of the third inning. South Chinn were at bat, two men were down when the incl- dent occurred. Thinking that bases were full whereas only two bags were occupied, the Kiora catcher, on receiving n return from the pitcher, Instead of touching a run- ner who was making for home, merely stepped on the plate, thus. allowing one run in. This had a rather demoralising effect on his side as the fielding slackened per- ceptibly, and before the inning came to an end four more runs were added by South China.
The standard of play was very high throughout and if Saturday's match is any criterion then the Junior League, which is making its debut this year, will prove to be a Bucce98.
The Kloras have not a weak spot Composed in the whole outfit. principally of lads who are still at all, played school, they, one and
