THE TAI WAN. BATHING BEACH: A PROTEST,
[TO THE EDITOR OF THE "HONG KONG DAILY PUEBS."]
Sin, The Government's decision | to provide no bathing accommoda- tion in Kowloon is surprising and deplorable. I was at Tai Wab with humber of boys wook by week last year and frequently found the place crowded. It struck me that considering the rough and ready nucommodation available the bench was remarkably well patronised. Now we are told the public are to lose bathing facilities hero because it is proposed to sell the foreshore, A if this were not enough we are also informed that no provision for bathing, will be provided at Lai
Chi Kok.
Does the Government realise that by thus depriving Kowloon of pub- le bathing facilities it lays itself open to the charge of being mean and shortsighted The intention is to deprive the boys and girls of Kowloon of the only places where they can bathe in safely and learn to swim.
Last year the boys of at least one Scout troop went regularly overy week to Tai Wan and several learned to swim.
The Government's proposal will mean that boys and girls will bathe

FAMOUS SCHOOLS' FRIENDS: AGAIN.
Haileybury College and Upping- ham, School, the two schools which had a serious disagreement last year following a Rugby match at Uppingham, have decided to be friends again.
The News-Chronicle learned that the annual cricket match, which has been an outstanding fix. ture in the sporting year of both schools for 60 years, will take place as usual this summer.
Last December sports relations between the two schools were broken eff, causing widespread .comment and surprise. It was alleged that following the Rugby match on.

Talbot called for an apology and
a withdrawal of the criticisms. Uppingham's reply caused further resentment, and it was decided to cancel all the next year's sporting fixtures between the two schools."
