THE HONG KONG. RIFLE
ASSOCIATION
Spoon And Practice Shoot
In conditions that were by far the most difficult experienced to date. the Hong Kong Rifle Association held a spoon and prac- tice shoot at the Kowloon City Range yesterday. There was a constantly changing light while the wind varied both in, direc tion and strength: As a direct result the scores were lower 'all round, but on the other hand the average number of shots were easily the highest yet made at a shoot.
The names of the winners of spoons at yesterday's meet can- not yet be announced, as the committee responsible for the han- dicapping are at work making them out; it is hoped, in the case of those who have fired through the three distances on each of three occasions, to acquaint them with the handicap alloted by the end of the present week.
The following were the leading scores:--

SHANGHAI INTERPORT BOWLS TEAM
Mr. Munroe Discusses Prospects
(By "JACK HIGH")
From the steamer on to a lawn bowls green was the experience of the
Shanghai Interport LaWI Bowls players who arrived here yesterday afternoon by the R.M.S. | Empress of Russia two hours ahead of the scheduled time thus afford- ing them an opportunity to play a game before the first interport match which ́ts to take place to- day on, the Recreio Green.

Glover have visited Hong Kong before.
As soon as the Shanghai players got off the Empress of Russia they boarded - the Association's launch and were at once sent across the harbour where they were taken straight to the Police green.
"Jack High" was given to under- stand from a very reliable source that J. Lopes had only just re- covered from a poisoned hand which, according to my informant, is still troubling him.
The team, comprising Messrs: J. Munroe (Captain). D. Richards.. J. Lopes, W. Train, C. W. Glover and J. Brierley, were met on their arr.val here by members of the Hong Kong Lawn Bowls Associa- ton which included Messrs: H. Nish (President), C. B. Hosking (Secretary), G. & F. Thompson | Shanghai Bank" Building. (Treasurer) and Messrs, B. W. Bradbury, B. E. Maughan and R. P. Philips (entertaining .com; mittee).
The Shanghai team will be roll- ing up this morning at the Bowl- ing Green or K.C.C. after which they will attend the official open- ing of the new Hong Kong and
Seen by "Jack High" Mr. Munroe and members of his team were unanimous 'that the trip down here was uneventful except for same rough weather.

YESTERDAY'S MATCH The Shanghai bowlers played their Arst match yesterday against,
Combined rink composed of players from the Civil Service and Police Clubs and lost by 22 shots to 15, though what was seen yes- terday cannot be taken as criterion of the visitors' form.
The game atarted weakly, all the players showing mediocre form but as it progressed each player came up with some bright play and towards the middle of the game the standard had in- proved vastly to make the game! more interesting.
Asked about the merits of the team Mr. Muriroe stated that it could be stronger as several play- ers were unable to get leave. He and his men were glad to be here. Their presence so early in Hong Kong yesterday was due to the efforts of the Captain of the steamer who speeded up the boat
Shanghai's No. 1 J. Lopes was from 4 pm, on Tuesday in order somewhat overshadowed by W. to allow the players time in which | McLead who time" and again had to indulge in some practice game the Portuguese beaten on the yesterday before the first Interport draw, "S. Alderman and A. O. match.

When told by an official of the H.K.L.B.A. regarding the enter tainment programme, Mr. Munroe said "I; is bowls, we want and not entertainment." As regards the curtallment of the programme due to their shorter stay in the Colony the captain of the Shanghai team said that a full programme "is too strenuous," "and that the pre- sent arrangements would Just about suit them.
THE INTERPORT Asked to comment on to-day's match he was not in a position to say anything as bowls is quch an uncertain game. As regards the composition of their team for to- day's match they have not yet bem decided as yet. The beam will in all probability be chosen be- tore lunch to-day.
