TITLE. NOT YET LANDED
(By "Veritas") -
Scoring an exceedingly clover win over their seniors оп Tuesday, Recreio "B" went a long way towards winning the mixed doubles badminton league. They have to beat the "A" team once more to claim the title.
Weakened by the absence of Eddie Sousa, the Recreio first string found their "Understudios” far too well balanced to be able to make up this handicap. A. M. Silva deputised for Sousa and played with Mrs, Sousa, but apart from a close match with II. Alyes and Miss O. Ribeiro they could make no Impression,
As a result of their losing all three games, the "B" team won by five games to four, and have now won all ten matches played.

London, Apr. 10.
Sunderland lost a wonderful chance of increasing their challenge to the Arsenal for the league leadership to-day when they lost to Manchester City by the only goal scored. In con sequence of this the Arsenal now lead Sunderland by three points and have a match in hand. A championship-winning position at this end of the season.
Manchester City, who are placed third naturally improved them- selves by this win, but with the same number of games played they are still one point behind Sunder- land and four points in arrears at i the Arsenal.
