Kowloon-Country Club Return Match
Sheungshui On Sunday: Singles And Foursomes
A.A. Lopes Retains Title
(By "Birdie")
SIXTEEN-A-SIDE, the return match between the Kowloon Golf Club and the Country Club will be played at Sheungshui on Sunday. Singles will bo played in the morning, and foursomes in the afternoon.
It seemed to some people the establishment of a precedent to abandon Fourballs in favour of foursomes -though I suppose in these minor matches it is a matter of choice-but it is an odd belief that fourballs are the accepted fours, for in all the great International matches on either side of the Atlantic, foursomes are played,

PITCHING TO VICTORY
And V.R.C.

(By "Ball Fan")
Before a perfect setting in warm softball weather, a capacity crowd of rabid ball fans streamed into the Kowloon stadium over the week-end to see A. A. Noronha's V.R.C. aquacade stars overwhelm Chung Hwa Maroons 16-3 for the Junior loop title, and the star- studded Wildcats crowned Girls' league champions with a hard fought 9-7 win over a gallant fighting, yet-in- experienced Maple Leaf team.
Fan Lee's Wahoos spelled finis to their loop schedule with a high-scoring 13-7 victory over the ever-popular dumpling Pan- thers. Abo Liu's Chinese Base- ball Clubbers sent the fast- fading Cyclones skidding down- wards to the sweat tune of 9-3. The nightcap found the rock bottom Canadian Chinese stalwarts in per-
