After last week's interrup- tion, league tennis is due to get back into full swing, atarting to-day with two mixed doubles matches. Weather conditions are none too hopeful and unless there has been a noticeable improvement during this morn- ing it is more than likely that the games will have to be post- poned.

Rangoon, June 26.
IF ever Rangoon was given an object lesson in football and how it should be played it received that lesson last evening, when the Chinese Olympic XI made their first appearance at the B.A.A. against the King's Royal Rifles, in the first of a series of three matches arranged for the team during their stay in Rangoon. The game as played by the Chinese footballers was something "fans" here have not seen before, but they nevertheless showed they could appreciate good football, and nothing but praise was. heard during the entire sixty minutes of play. *・・
