ILLINGWORTH YACHTING RACE WON BY
Commendable Keenness
AZUMA DURING
Shown by Junior Club THE WEEK-END
De Recreio Cricketers Moonlight Of Great
A resolute innings by G. Gosano, and a somewhat speculative, though enterprising knock by R. Soares, who between them added 67 for the seventh wicket, not only pulled Club de Recreio juniors out of queer street in their friendly cricket match against the K.C.C., at Cox's Road on Saturday, but with J. Gosano, another school boy member of the huge family of cricketers, bowling effectively late in the game, the visitors all but pulled off victory, the K.C.C. laving the worst of a draw, with scores of 169 for 7 declared against 107 for 8.

Azunas won the Illingworth Cup race, which started from The Royal Hongkong Yacht Club on Saturday evening at 6 p.m. The course was: Cheung Chau (port) Lingting Island (port) Waglan (port) and Hongkong (starboard) with finish at the Yacht Club. Distance 45 miles. As a preliminary to the annual Macao Race it was an excellent one, with light and strong breezes and one's patience as well as sailing ability had to be exercised, especially during the calm yesterday morning-and patience is a very neces-

The wind came good and strong out of Stanley and Tytam Bays. The moon had been very good to us and apart from a few momentary disappearance behind clouds, had done its best to lighten our way; but as we drew near Stan- ley it finally went to sleep. There were many fishing sampans about with their bright lights blinding us, but a junk ahead acted as guide as we were sea serpenting our way through the numerous craft.
