Nine more second round mat- ches of the Open Singles event will be played off today.
The two best games of the evening will probably be seen at Kowloon Dock Club where John Tang of Kowloon Cricket Club will be pitted against Craigengower's C. C. Ma and former champion Joe Landolt will be up against G. F. Santos, who in the first round eliminated ex-champion C. C. Pereira,
