Not
Many Sides To Extend Club
This Season
All Round Strength Shown Against Kowloon C.C. ·
(By “R. Abbit")
It is a bit early to talk at present of League games but I must confess that I do not see any side that on present form is likely to extend the Club. All the same some teams seem to "train on" as the season advances and others among them the Club-are apt to sag a bit.
On Saturday last the strength of the Club all round was shown as t was not so much the regular scorers who made the runs, or, for the mutter of that, got the wickets. Ride, a
bateman who always looks te making a
lot of run
(and runs, very often does nol), got going, and I hear his 01 wan n excellent Innings. In view of his most ex- cellent fielding he is going to prove a tower of strength if he continues to succeed with the bat. F. II. Stokca

BATTING COLLAPSE
Broadbridge will in time make quite a good opening bat, but no one really came off for K.C.C., possibly due to the chock of their having lost Anderson early on, who tell to one of Owen Hughes' brilliant efforts the allps. Neither of the Finchers seem to have seliled down yet, and R. E. Lee in variable. For the rest the K.C.C. batting in, I fear, not strong. Of course, they against some pretty useful bowling.

Led 19-1 At One Stage In Match With Hongkong F.C.
(By "Aba")
The "Shanghai Interport lawn bowlers made such a splendid start in their game with the Hongkong Football Club at Happy Valley yesterday that they were leading by 11-0 at the end of tho first five heads and 19-1 after the eighth. Having established such a substantial lead, the visitors were never in danger of defeat and finally finished up winners by 20-14.

The fast and wide-drawing green made control of the woods difficult, and the upshot was a mixture of good and indifferent bowls. There were a few poor heads, but there were also some fine ones in which the position was changed with almost every wood sent down.
Shanghai settled down more quick- than hosts. With Swartzell,

Tommy Farr Is Suspended
London, Oct. 14. The British Boxing Board of Control has announced that Tommy Farr's licence is sus- pended from to-day.
Commenting from Now York on his suspension, Farr said: "I won't pay on principle. Maybe I will never want to return to England, therefore it is immaterial to me if I never fight again in England."
The payment referred to is the fine of £750. which the Board of Control has imposed on Farr, and which he has steadfastly refused to pay.
