CHINESE RECREATION CLUB "AT HOME."-The annual function at Causeway Bay last Saturday was just as successful as its predecessors. Look at the formidable array of trophies, mostly awarded for lawn tennis, at which gumo the C.R.C.'s prowess has for long been proverbial. Mr. Ng Sze-kwong (in white trou- sors), a former champion of the Colony, is seen addressing the large gathering-(A. Fong).
