CRICKET.
SATURDAY'S RESULTS.
KOWLOON BEAT ROYAL NAVY.
CENTURY PARTNERSHIP,
Kowloon won their League fixture with the Royal Navy. on Saturday by a comfortable margin. They are now in the most favourable position for winning the Shield, but this result is not by any means certain. Among other teams they have to meet are the Civil Servico, the Indians and the Scottish Borderera who are not easy to beat.
The Hong Kong Cricket Club did not beat the Craigongower ar easily as the, mores indicate. The latter team had stiil four wickets in hand ten minutes before time for draw. ing stumps, but such is the uncer tainty of cricket, backed this time by some uncommonly good bowling. by Vallack and Major Lightfoot, that, what looked like an ineviti able draw was converted into a quick and unexpected win for the ¦ Hong Kong Cricket Club,
In the same match the first wicket partnership between Hay- ward and Capt. Evers (H.K.C.C.) produced over a hundred runs. This is the only performance of its kind so far in league matches this year.

'DIVISION. II.
Roller 3.0. *. Hong Kong B.d Played on the Police Recreation Club ground, the Home team win
In the second division, the Police regained the top position by heating. ing the Hong Kong Cricket Club. Their points, however, or matchca played are not so favourably as the Indians, who are second. The two teams have not met yet.
The struggle for honours in both divisions is by no means decided and interest in the current league matches should not be lacking from week to week.
The detailed scores of Saturday's
matches follow:-
LEAGUE-DIVISION I
Eowloon 0.d. v. Royal Navy, Played on the Kowloon Cricket Club ground, the Hoxe team win- ning.
Kowloon opened their account Lo compiling 204 runs, declared, for wickets. E. F. Fincher, Capt. Bevis and Macaskill, the last three men in batted confidently and were responsible for bringing the scOTO to over 200. The Navy did not bat up to reputation. Stands were made by Lieut. Emley, Lieut.-Col. Cantrell and Lieut. Sturges - for i the third, fourth and fifth wickets, but after that Kowloon had things their own, way. Capt. Morris, who returned to the Colday the day pro- vious to the match, was responsible for the cheap dismissal of the Navy "tail"
Kowloon's victory is the most im- portant win so far:
