Narrow Victory Over the C.B.A.
P
Playing the same team that beat the Juts team on Saturday after- noon, the Macao Hockey Club yesterday morning at King's Park defeated the Central British Asso- ciation by the only goal scored ́in a very fast and clean game.
On the run of the play the C.B.A. should have emerged victors, but their forward line, particularly Johnson and Francis, were off their usual form. Ideal weather condi tions favoured the match.
In the first half, the C.B.A. at- tacked vigorously, but they failed to score even when well placed. Time and again they were evez a source of danger to the Macao) goalkeeper, Capitule, who cleared well. In a rush down the field, Laertes, sent in a shot which G. Duncan only partly saved, and Laertes, coming in again, scored an easy goal.. Prior to this White
scored for the C.B.A. but the goal was disallowed for offside.
In the second half, the C.B.A.) were again on the offensive, but the frequency of "sticks" "spofled many a good opening. Both goals were raided In turn, but there was no further scoring.
The Macao, team played very well, Lasgeiro being prominent on] the right wing. In the defence, Lt. [da Costa, Rodrigues, Cardoso and
Lino Ferreira, were good.
Of the C.B.A. forwards, T. Whit- lev and White were good, whilst N. Whitley, Gregory and Tippie were prominent in the defence. Davies at centre-half, played an excellent game.

In Admiralty Jurisdiction on February 19, the Chief Justice gave judgment against the Nippon Yusen Kaisha, on claim and counter-clim, involving over $80,000, arising out of a collision in Hong Kong harbour in March, 1931, between the Japanese ss. Toyooku Māru and the China Navigation Company's steamer Klangsu Lordship said he had no hesitation in saying that the main cause, at least, of the collision was the action of the Toyooka Maru in going across the fairway into fog. He had also come fo the conclusion that the Japanese ship could have avoided a collision by dropping her anchor. A full text of the finding is published in the OVERLAND
CHINA MAH..

The Annual Race Meeting opened at Happy Valley on February 20, in brilliant weather. Times were fast and the turf was in perfect condition. However, it rained on the fourth day, but that did not in any way dampen the en. thusiasm of racegoers. The Ladies' Purse was won by Mr. Y. S. Chang, his mount being King's Bounty, the favourite for the event. Several record times were broken, Doctor's Mandate doing exceptionally well in that line, lowering a record on the second day, and then beating his own record the following day! Dividends were fairly high, the biggest being $551, for second place, and $434 for third place. Liberty Bay (Mr. Hill up) won the Derby in a common canter. The lucky winner of the Derby first prize, $12,000 odd, was a Chinese man. A full report of the meeting is chronicled in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL.

The China-Japan-war is still raging, in spite of what the Powers are endeavouring to do to restore peace. Reports of a big Chinese victory over the Japanese was current in Hong Kong on February 23, and soon every. Chinese citizen was celebrating the good news. Crackers were fired all over the place, and the streets were littered with red paper. Latest movements of troops in the war zone, and the grave situation in Shanghai are dealt with fully in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL.
