by eight wickets.
He and Rodiques made possiblo this performance by putting on 150 for the first wicket. This is the second time this season they have been concerned in a first wicket partnership realising 'over 100, the previous being 160 against the Army, when Anderson compiled Innings of 126.

126 v Army
71 Civil Service
58 v University Past XI
48 v I.R.C.
18 not out v Combined Schools

THEN the Interport selectors
trooped into the Hongkong

SOMETHING in the way of a sensation was created by the Inter- port Selection Committee on Saturday evening, when, following the final Trial, they announced the composition of the Hongkong XI to meet Shanghai on Thursday. It included three forwards who had not appeared in trials, and Lau Mau was brought in for S. Strange at left back.
The team is:
Goal-C. Rodger (Club).
Backa: Allon (R.A.) and Lau Mau (South China). Half-backs:- Lo ung Wing-chui (South-China), Pardoe (R.A.),
capt, and A. Duncan (Club).
Forwards: Cheng Shui-hong (South China), Wong Mei-shun (South China), A. V. Gosano (St. Joseph's) B. Gosano (St. Joseph's) and V. Seal (RA.).
Reserves: Martin (Club), Mullane (S.W.B.), Bliss (Kowloon),
