To Hold Colony Championships
DESPITE the possibility of postponements due to the Volun teer Camps, the Council of the Hongkong Badminton Associa
decided at a meeting Room of the in the Board
THE CO-INCIDENCE of Volunteer Camps tion and compotitions have set a problem for the Com-South China Morning Post Build- mittoo of the Country Club, Sheungshiu. Coming yesterday to hold the annual potitions, as I have remarked before, are in full Colony championships this year, The Rev. Mr. J. R. Higgs presid- swing. The first rounds of the men's foursomes ed, assisted by Mr. S. A. Gray, and the Club championship have boon played, Secretary. while the first round of the Captain's Cup will be played on Sunday.
Farms will be sent to the various
club secretaries, and entrants will
be asked to All in the dates when they will be at Camp. The sub-
committee, comprising Messrs. Oli- would then try and fix the matches accordingly.
The conditions and sections will be the same as last year, with a fer of two dollars for single, und four dollars for each doubles team entrant. The closing date for entries was fixed
The rule is rigidly enforced at the Club that matches cannot be played off after the date arranged by the Com-veira, Beattle, Lul, Fisher and Gray, mittee, and, consequently, for a player who may have qualified for the Captain's Cup, and who may have won his first round match in the foursomes, the penalty of having to concede walks-over in both competitions would be rather hard.

The Volunteers went into Camp yesterday, and unless, therefore, a second round match had been played off on Monday, or a Volunteer was able to obtain feave from Camp on Sunday, there would be no help for him. No one can anticipate winning a unless the Committee match, and make some sort of ruung regarding | Volunteers, the latter people muy probably not consider it worth whne entering the competitions, if they are likely to be forced into giving walks- over. There was hearly such a case for the coming week-end, 'but, for- tunately, neither side are uble to play. It is one way of evading an Awkward rule.
The rigidness with which this rule Bemorced can be gathered from the fact
that in a finaf last year, a pair walk-uver because conceded through totally unfurscen sances one of the players was unable to attend...

CRITICS' COMMENTS
Interport XI As Strong As Could Be Chosen
SHANGHAI, Jan. 30 (UP). The majority of critics approve the interport team, which is as strong as could be chosen, although there is argument regarding George Collet gaining the full back post instead of Sgt. Campbell, who played grand football throughout the season but was badly off-colour during Sunday's trial.
Somb favoured the veteran { Adidi Costa over N. Z. Lee, but the latter showed superior speed and more robust tactics and therefore won the centre half post.
A QUERY regarding the order of play in matches was brought up by Mr. Gray, who staled that there was no officiul ruling on the point. After some discussion, the Chairman, Mr. Higgs, recommended from the Chair that visiting clubs be given the curtesy
