A. Crawford is down to meet his club-mate, G. C. Burnett. Crawford is considered in many quarters to be a coming champion. He has play- ed regularly throughout the off- season and has advanced his game! considerably, having now overcome his one-time reluctance to take the forecourt. His volleying nowadays, while not being his favourite means of attack, is very reliable.
In the only doubles encounter, the centre of "attraction will un- doubtedly be the appearance of the veteran Ng Sze-kwong, who, in partnership with Hon Luen Fung, will meet H. T. Bee and H. Y. Hst.
