Poor conditions under- foot and a periodical fine drizzle culminating in a fairly heavy downpour, did not prevent Chinese from Recreation. Club securing a decision in their "B" Division match with Kowloon Cricket Club yesterday at Cox's Road.
Winning all three first-round sets, C.R.C. just managed to win two of the three second-round sets and before the rain came down washed out all prospects of fur- ther play. At this stage Frank Grose and R, T. Broadbridge were holding C. C. Luk and P. F. Tsoi, the scores being 3-all but, in view of Broadbridge's inclination to be erratic, it is unlikely that the home pair would have won on Grose's efforts.
Promising Debut
N. Llewellyn, playing in his first game for K.C.C., gave a very use- ful display, his chopped ground- strokes and volley being quite. 11⁄2 1% sound and his courtcraft adequate,
Fisher, Together with
the "C" 11⁄2 1 team captain, who also did well, Llewellyn was rather unfortunate 12 12
in not beating Ho Ka-lau and Ju 12 Tak-lam, the former, runner-up in the Colony doubles championship 11⁄2 11⁄2 last year. After being led. 4-1 and 5-4, however, the experience 11⁄2 1% of the C.R.C. pair made itself felt
and they won the set at 7--5.
Capell, hitting much harder than usual, was far more impressive but received little support from Mac- kay in his first set. The latter served no fewer than seven dou- ble-faults in' two` games.
