FANLING GOLF
The Sir Arthur Morse Cup was played for on Sunday over 18 holes on the Royal Hongkong Golf Club Öld Course at Fanling.
This challenge Trophy was presented by Sir Arthur Marse for annual competition between Golfers on the staff of the Hong Kong & Shanghai Bank and it has become one of the
most
popular "off season" events at
anda
Fanling. The competition proper ends after the playing of 18 holes, but most of the players go through to the 19th for the usual post mortems and to con- gratulate the winner on a splendid dual performance of playing and mixing.
The winner, for the second time since the competition com- menced, was LH.G Thomson with a Nett 70 followed by P.G. Cantopher and WAH
Balfour with Nett 74. The latter player returned the lowest gross score and PGA. Contopher won a consolation prize for having placed
his five bob on the
