I think the solution is to piny the Club vs. Army match on an early whole. holiday-say Armistice day if no Interport cricket interferes. They usually raise a full alde early on. The Navy or most of it is here could over Christmas and Club play them, and the Army play them over the Christmas holidays, while the United Services matchi could be played at New Year (when everyone is available.
Then for China New Year, the very old Club might revive fixture and take on the Rest. Or if not this, then play H.K.C.C. v. Include Kowloon. This would K.C.C. and all those resident in Kowloon, I have reason to be- has tho lievo. that
