ten in the United States for the simple reason that there were so many upsets while I was abroad that I couldn't keep track of them all.

It seems certain, however, that with the barring of Tilden from amateur play the No. 1 position | among United States players would automatically go to Hunter, finalist in the national singles champion- ship.

The match last night between P. Jones and I. R. Sequeira in the Palace Hotel snooker champion ship was won by the former by 106 (38, 37, 81). to 113 (61, 35. Hunter had two or three bad de- 23). The winner had a break of

round by Tilden, who in turn lost to Cochet in three straight sets. Cochet gets the preference over Lacoste for world first place be- cause he won the national cham-: pienship at Forest Hills,

Tilden, of course,' did not com- pete in the late season play, but his record in the early summer, to- gether with his victory over Lacoste, gives him the right to third place.

It has been decided to hold an 'annual bowls match between Hong Kong and Kowloon. There will be 24 playera on each side.
