TO-DAY'S TENNIS
With still little improvement in the weather, League tennis is again extremely doubtful this afternoon.
If any tennis is played, closest match will probably be the K.C.C.- South China tie at King's Park, while H.K.C.C. should extend C.R.C. at Causeway Bay.
Following is the programme for the rest of the week and some of the teams for to-day.

Spary. This latter rink created a very favourable impression in their first round game when
they beat a useful First Division rink skipped by Joe Fraser, of K.C.C.
Owing to the uncertainty as to whether any games would be pos- sible yesterday, no matches have been fixed for this week and those GOLF rinks which did not play yesterday are asked to make their own ar- rangements with regard to these postponed matches and endeavour to play them all off before the end of the week.
A meeting of the competition committee will be held at Messrs.
The Americans rode brilliantly in the second half when Tyrrell Martin played brilliantly at back.
