WEEK-END SPORTING ACTIVITIES

KOWLOON C. C. DEFEAT

HONG KONG C.C.

IRG WIN IN BOTH LEAGUES

SEVERAL CENTURIES RECORDED

The Indian R.C., champions of both Cricket Leagues, regia- tered the "double against the Royal Navy, on Saturday, Kow- loop bont Hong Kong in the premier league and drew in the junior division, while Craigengower beat the Service Corps.

In the Senior League, Kowloon Cricket Club's defeat of the strong Hong Kong C.C. provided a thrilling match at King's Park. Bowling at the top of their form the K.C.C. bowlers kept the visiting bateman very subdued, and dismissed them for a total of 130 runs. Things looked rather blue for the home team, however, when G.RM. Rickette immediately dropped onto length and had E.C.C's first three batanen out for 11 runs, but the following batsmen filled the broach ahly, and in a thrilling race against the clock, obtained the required runs in the last over of the day, I. McInnes (47), and W. C. Hung (21) being chiefly re- sponsible.

1

TA. Pearce, the newcomer to Colony cricket was dismissed early in the Club's innings, but he should make a lot of runa as the season progresses.

The I.R.C. versus Navy match proved a triumph for the re- doubtable major league Indian bowlers Pereira and Minu, who, in addition to dismissing the Navy batamen for 50 runs, knocked up 30 runs and 68 runs respectively to win the game by 7 wickets. Pereira bowled magnificently in capturing 7 wickets for 29 runs.

The feature of the junior league games was the bright bat ting of N. B. Kitchell who knocked up 103 not out against the R.E. and Signals to give his side victory by 8 wickets. R. Sour- butts also bowled well for his 6 for 30.

Two centuries were registered in the friendly gunes, D.J.N. Andorton scoring 198 for the University against the Army and. J. E. Richardson 195 retired for the P.W.D, against the Sanitary Department.
