The weather kept sufficiently clear en Saturday to allow a few matches to be the Hongkong Cricket played off on ground, which was not occupied for The light. cricket during the afternoon. however, was bad and the state of the ground was on the soft side.
The Open Doubles Match was not played, but a very lively Club Singles was witurised' instead between Totten hac and Cape. West. Tottenham demon- strated a different type of play to that which he usually plays, and proved to be the superior of the two in tactics and vourterait. He ran sut victorious by three sets to love. Capt. West played a base line game and put in many fine drives, but did not like his opponent's cute and was rather reckless at timez
The two contestants engaged each ather in the beginning i hard driving dueta from the base line and shared the Best ten games equally, the slippery state of the ground making footwork difficult. Capt. West led by winning the eleventh game, but Ending Tottenham had by this time judged his opponent and his weak point, he adopted cutting as his aggressive stroke. This made all the difference in the game. Tottenham soon his way to
won the first set and cut win the second without the loss of a single game. West was obviously trou- bled by the different spia and pace of the ball after the bounce. The third set was the best of the three. Tettenham was cutting all the time, instead of alter anting his strokes. West, however, had become used to the cutting and was play. ing these balls with less difficulty. bas although he led at 5-3, 6-5, 7-6, Totten- ham's steadiness never gave him a chance to win the one more necessary game. The final scores were 0-7, 6-0, 9-7.

A DISAPPOINTMENT: NG SEE XWONG.
→ WITROLAWS,
What was feared, as reported in these columna last Monday, has now come to rang. Ng Sza Kwong, champion for six Ponsecutive years (1918-1923), has de initely withdrawn from the Open Singles and Doubles Championships of the Colony. The news no doubt, will be a soure of great disappointment to lovers of the game who had been anticipating aceing the popular ex-champion once more at his best. Ng Sze Epong bad practised hard for the current Champion. ships and had been playing extremely well for some time past. It is hoped that he will recover quickly end that we shall see him competing the Champion Ship for next year as strong and în as
form as before.
·His withdrawal gives the Championships different complexion and those who Have despaired of any chance of winning against Ng Sze Kwong will doubtless now practiae the harder. The Championships will not be as animated as with Ng Ste Kwong in.
In the Singles Ng Sze Ewong had entered the second round by defeating Baines in the first, and was to have met the winner of the match between N. Nomura and J. R. Craig. The winner of this match will now automatically enter the third round to meet the successful competitor of the Cassumbhoy and Fin cher match..

Alfred continued his vigorous attack, but he failed to keep his head.

Up to the seventh round Naegelin went ahead on points, but not with very much to spare. 9th round opened with Alfred beginning strongly. He shook Naegelin with face and body blows, and with the exception of getting home with the left apce, the Frenchman was on the defensive the whole time.
