CLOSE QUARTER-FINAL GAMES EASTERN BEAT POLICE
Omar Brothers Beat Razack and Rosselet In Bowls Pairs Tourney
(By "Wick")
Further Changes To Be Made In Chinese XI
THOUGH there is definite improvement in the Police line-up which faced Eastern at Boundary Street yesterday, their defeat by the odd goal in five was more in the nature of a warning note of things to come."
From accounts given by their manager, Chan Fook- yue, there are to be more changes in the Eastern line-up before the season opens. Two players, who travelled with them on their last tour will sign forms for them, and will appear against Sing Tao in their First Division alash on the 22nd.
TWO of the remaining three matches in tho quarter-finals of the Lawn Bowls Pairs Champion- ship were played yesterday, and after close and exciting games, A. M. Omar and U. M. Omar who beat A. A. Razack and C. S. Rosselet, and W. J.

V. Ribeiro v. R. Basa and J. S. Landolt game was post- poned and will be played on Tuesday.
Peculiarly, in both games, last minute rallies decided the issue. The first men- tioned, which was played at the Kowloon Football Club, was the more exciting and provided the better bowling. ! The second was at the Kow- loon Bowling Green Club,

All four players at the Kow- loon F.C. contributed to make what one spectator termed "the finest pairs match this season." Of the leads, A. M. Omar and the latter was A. A. Razack, slightly the superior, though it acemed largely a matter of ends. To the pavilion end, Razack had the touch beautifully, and was time and again around the jack, while at the other end.
