At the end of the third week's games, not a single team in the first division could boast of an undefeated record. But that was not all. Two mighty "Gollaths" in the form of the two top-favoured first division teams, Indian Recreation Club and Recreio "A", lay spreadeagled after the day's proceedings, well and truly vanquished by the week's "Davids of the green," Craigengower Cricket Club "B" and Kowloon Dock Club.
