THE CHINA MAIL, MARCH 25, 1940
BADMINTON THRILLS AHEAD
. է
The Colony badminton champion- ships have now reached the really In- teresting stages and this week, for the first time, a match will be staged at Club de Recreio.
By the end of next week most of the events will have reached the final stages and badminton of the highest class is expected.
There is a particularly interesting programme fixed for King's College to-morrow. In the first match K. L. Yong and H. F. Chew (University) will be opposed to F. Koh and C. Y. Yung (Chinese Y.M.C.A.). Neither of these pairs are regular League part- nerships, but, individually, all the players are of the highest order. A keen tussle should result with little in it at the finish.

In the other doubles match C. K. Cheah and T. T. Chinn, a strong enough pair, are not likely to beat C. Au and P. H. Wong, potential finalists.
In the junior singles, W. Gillies should enter the final at the expense of P. Wynter-Blyth.
BEST OF WEEK
Best match of the week should be that at Recreio on Thursday between P. H. Wong and Miss W. Cheung and H. Eardley and Miss D. Eardley. Miss Eardley is a somewhat better player than Miss Cheung, but the men are very well matched and a very even game should résult. The programme at Recreio will be completed by the other semi-final in the junior cham-
