THERE a little of interest in to-
day's programme of matches.
The Recreio "A" resume their Inter-
rupted match against Kowloon C.C.
at Cox's Road, while the
Indians
entertain the Craigengower C.C. at Sookunpoo. The Indians were badly beaten when they first met the C.C.C, but with the advantage of home green, added to the fact that
B. W. Bradbury and U. M. Omar
are missing from the visiting team,
the Indians should take their revenge
Lo-day.
It will also be interesting to see
how the Club de Rrerelo "B" get on:
against the Civil Servants at Happy:
Valley. Personally
do not give
much for their chances of winning,
but as they are in danger of relega-
tion they may pull something out of
the usual out of the bag.
THE chief rivals in the Third
THE
Division, Club de Recreto and
Kowloon C.C., are both playing to-
day, the former at home to the Yacht
