KOWLOON F.C. UNFORTUNATE
C.G. Silva's Rink Saves Recreio 'A': Hard Game for Craigengower To-day
(By "Wick")
KOWLOON FOOTBALL CLUB had good reason to be called the unluckiest club in the Lawn Bowls League last week. Three of the 12 matches played in the three divisions have been decided by a single shot, and in two of them the K.F.C. figured at the losing end.
Two Teams Beaten ByOne Shot
Both these defeats were sustained on their own green, too. In the Second Division they were defeated by Kow- toon C.C. 53-52, and in the Third Division by Craigengower C.C. 58-57.
The remaining team to go down by one shot were Club de Recreio, who lost to Taikoo R.C., at Taikoo, by
47.48.
Writing on the prospects of predict what the Civil Servants last week's matches in the First will do against Kowloon Docks Division, I expressed the opinion at Hunghom. that the most, interesting game would be the one between the champions (Recreio "A") and the Civil Service CC. And so it proved.

England and Scotland Draw at Hampden Park
International Match In
Aid of Red Cross
LONDON.-Scotland and England shared two goals, both scored in the second half, in the Red Cross inter- national at Hampden Park on May 11 before 62,431 spectators. There could be no two opinions about which were the cleverer team. The Englishmen were much more efficient and crisp in their footwork and in combina- tion, too, they were superior to a Scottish team who nevertheless maintained they should have won.
