Form points to agave $350 for a nice-looking animal good win for the Kowloon team, in Winchester, but it is up to the Electric, Club to "fuse" their efforts.
The list of fixtures is as under:

Figures in parentheses denote last season's results.
Probably the chief match will be that between the Craigengower Cricket Club and the Kowloon Dock Recreation Club at the Valley. This may seem queer to some, looking to the respective positions of the two contestants, on the League table. Still, last year the Dock went down on the same green
by only four shots and the year before by only nine shots (78-61). They bagged their first brace of points at the Valley last week and In whisper reaches me that they are confident of repeating the trick against the Craigengower to
morrow.
The home team will be stronger than they would have been had weather permitted last Saturday and the feat that they have not yet lost this season is most likely to prove the strongest Incentive" to score again to-morrow. I rashly predict that whoever wins will have no more than ten points margin in hand at the finish.
K.B.G.C. v. K.C.C.
Season
As In the case of the Craigen- gower the K.C.C. have yet to lose their first match this season, but to-morrow they are scarcely on "foreign" soil for "most of their members know the K.B.G.C. green ne well as their own. It is true that last
they lost by 6848 and the previous year by 60-43, but the constitution of the respective teams this year has undergone a big change. At the beginning of this season a friendly | encounter resulted in favour of the K.C.C., so that is something which the home team will be out to morrow ́to_avengo. Another close game is expected here.
Club de Recreio v. Police. Bad luck still dogs, the footsteps of the Police, who visit the Club de Recrelo to-morrow. A year ago the home Club won by 72-58 and the year before by 66-49.
There
a little hope of the Police surviving to-morrow, unless the glorious un- certainties of lawn bowls come into the picture. A win for the Police would indeed be pleasing for all lawn bowlers, Including their sporting hosts of to-morrow, but all that can be looked forward to is pleasant afternoon's sport.
