2. Can you Select the Hongkong Interport
Cricket team?
IN VIEW OF THE MANY DISCUSSIONS AND ARGUMENTS WHICH INVARIABLY.
CENTRE ROUND THE SELECTION OF AN INTERPORT ELEVEN WE HAVE DECIDED TO HOLD A NOVEL COMPETITION. WE ASK OUR READERS TO CHOOSE THE PLAYERS WHOM THEY THINK WILL REPRESENT HONGKONG IN THE MATCH AGAINST SHANGHAI ON NOVEMBER IITH` (or on whatever date the game may be played);
Most people will be able to make a fairly close approximation to the team by the first week in November. We, therefore, propose to put a premium upon our readers' judgment and foresight by dividing the Competition into three parts.
That
is to say, the first lists of selections-we will call them SERIES A-must reach the Hongkong Daily Press. on or before September 15th.
་་
The second fists-SERIES B-on or before October 7th. The final lists-SERIES C-on or before November 1st. (Readers should-note that it is up to them to get their lists to The Hongkong Daily Prest Office, and no claims for postal or other delay will be considered by the Edito!)
To avoid the risk of judgment being swamped by numerical profusion.
each competitor is limited to 20 lists in each series-60 lists in all. Selection becomes easier as time goes on and, therefore
For each 'correct name submitted on each list in Series A, two
points will be credited to the competitor.
For each correct name in Series B, 1 points.
For each correct name in Series C, one point.
Thus while the competitor who starts early has the best chance, the one who starts later is by no means out of the running if he is skilful in selection and assiduous in collecting his twenty coupons.
SYSTEM OF SCORING.
To illustrate the system of scoring, to obtain full points a competitor would have to choose the correct team from the start and give this correct team in the full twenty lists of each series.

The Judge is a gentleman who has been associated with Hongkong Cricket for many years. He informs us that he expects the winning total will "be between three and four hundred, and points out that, while ties would involve dividing the prizes, as a mark would make the difference, a tie under the system of scoring devised is very unlikely,

In the very unlikely event of a tie these prizes will be divided.
Rules.
Lists must strictly. conform to the following rules:
Each must have a'special coupon attached and he signed with a nom-de-plume. Initials of the selected players must be given. Where more than one player may bear the same name," full and correct initials only will score points.
The competitor 9 name must not be written on the selected-list-but-must-be-sent- separately in the same envelope with that list. Envelopes should be marked "Cricket Competition." The names and addresses will be retained by the Editor. The lists only will be handed to the Judge.
The Judge, therefore will be aware of the nom-de-plume only of each of the com petitors. (More obrious ones Wicker" "Willow," "Stamped,"ate, should be avoided to Fare duplicacion. Moreover, it is hereby notified that a one using the name R. Abbit will be pantly disqualified. It is already dedicated.)....

Coupons.
Coupons, of which we print a sample below, will be published
on the following dates only:-
In each issue between September 1st and 14th for Series A.
J7
September 22nd and October 8th for Series B. October 15th and 30th for Series C.
Lists need not contain the full eleven names, but any list containing more than eleven will be destroyed and no credit will be given for it.
The eleven names upon which, the marking will be given are those of the eleven gentlemen who actually play in the match. The Judge, the Official Selection. Committee and any one on the staff of the Hongkong Daily Press are excluded from the Competition.
In any case of doubt or argument the Editor's decision is final

HONGKONG DAILY PRESS
Cricket Competition
As will be seen from the particulars given, the competition will open on Septem- ber 1st. "When a list is completed all that remains to be done is to attach a coupon to it and send it in. The coupons for Series A will, as stated, appear in each issue of-the Daily Prear from September. 1st to 14th. Twenty lists is the maximum that will be considered la any one series. While coupons may be taken from the paper of any date it would be advisable not to leave the collection of coupons until the last day. It might be found impossible to secure the full number required.
(There will be no need to re-write a list. JP. It is desired to stand or fall by the names originally chosen. One list, accompanied by, twenty coupons will be judged as twenty lists, and volats given accordingly.)
Any readers to whom the rules are not clear are invited to write and ask for explanation on any doubtful point.
