LAWN TENNIS LEAGUE TO-DAY
TWELVE MATCHES TO OPEN 1932 SEASON
TWO ENCOUNTERS POSTPONED
CRAIGENGOWER RECEIVE FIRST TEST WITH VISIT OF INDIAN R.C. CHAMPIONS VISIT KOWLOON
(By Audax.)
Providing the recent rains have not damaged the courts to too great an extent and providing that rain holds off during the afternoon the Hong Kong Lawn Tennis League will to-day open the 1932 season with a programme of twelve matches in the three divisions.
Originally the programme consisted of four- teen matches, but owing to the enforced visit to Canton of Li Wai-choi and his brother Li Woon-choi, the South China Athletic Association “A” side has been able to secure a postponement of their game with the Indian Recreation Club. In the "C" Divi- sion the Y.M.C.A. have been seriously handicapped by illness and I understand that their game with the Police Recreation Club, newcomers to this divi- sion, has been indefinitely postponed.
At Causeway Bay the Chinese Recreation Club entertain the Hong Kong Cricket Club and should be able to commence the
season with 100 per cent. in their I effort to break the run of auc- cesses enjoyed by the Indian Re creation Club.
The most interesting match on the programme is that which will be played between the Craigen- gower C.C. and the Indian R.C. at Happy Valley in the "B" Division. Last season the Indians were at sixes and sevens in this division, but this season I understand that they have discovered a system of ranking which will ensure their best possible team for each en- counter. Craigengower, as I men-1 tioned yesterday, have a decided- ly strong combination this sea- son, and to-day's encounter should prove a fairly useful pointer to Craigengower's chances of lifting the Shield for the first time in the! history of that Club. The Indians have won this division champion- Iship once-as far back as 1922,
since which date the Chinese Re-1 creation Club have held the upper hand.
OPENING FIXTURES.
The full programme (with last
season's resulta in brackets) for the official opening of the Tennis League to-day is as follows:-
C. R. C. in thee Dark The holders of, the "B" Division. Shield are in opposition to the Kowloon Cricket Club at the K.C.C., and a close encounter is promised with the Chinese the more probable winners. They, however, are playing against an unknown quantity in G. W. Greene, who has arrived from Canton and H. Klengelbacker. M. Huber and P. Dunné all of whom
are from Shanghai and new to Hong Kong tennis, and may even receive
a set-back in their opening match. Likely Winners
The Recreio, the most likely challengers for the Shield, should find the Civil Service side easy prey and South China should beat the Club. The University, though playing on foreign courts at Soo kunpoo, should just emerge win-| ners against the Army team, pri- viding. L.. T. Ride and F. A. Red- mond are turning out for them this year.

A WHOLE WEEK'S NEWSPAPERS IN ONE.
More than usual interest was centred on the Epsom Derby by the fact that two local residents succeeded in drawing horses in both the Calcutta and Irish Sweeps.
Miss Clair Couper Munro, a teacher at the Central British School, Kowloon, drew Portofino in the Calcutta Sweep and shares half of the ticket with Mrs. R. A. Rodgers of 513, The Peak.
An interesting interview with Miss Munro is repro- duced in the OVERLAND, CHINA MAIL.

In the Irish Sweep, the Aga Khan's horse, Dastur, was drawn by the "San Sang" Syndicate whose address is given as Handelsbank. This Is, of course, the Nederlandsch Indische Handelsbank N.V.
As the result of inquiry made at the Bank it turned out that there was no syndicate and that the holder of the ticket was an individual, who was referred to as Mr. Z and his identity was closely guarded.
The OVERLAND CHINA MAIL. contains an account of the endeavour made to trace the lucky ticket holder,

Sentences of death were passed by the Pulsne Judge (Mr. Justice J. R. Wood) at the Assizes, on May 30, on Cheung: Taze-san and Cheung Sau-fu, two of three men who were found guilty, on May 14, of murder of a young student ́ named Tsang Tai-kal, on February 18.
The two men's fate was sealed at the Full Court, pre- sided over by the Chief Justice (Sir Joseph H. Kemp, K.C.), when after hearing argument by Mr. Somerset Fitzroy that there was not sufficient evidence to go to the Jury, the Court decided that the convictions must stand. The third man, Cheung Man, was sentenced to death on May 14, immediately after the Jury had returned their verdict.
A full report of the scene at the sentencing of the re~". maining two men is carried in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL.
A distressing Hfe-boat accident ccurred in Kowloon Bay on the night of May 27. The boat, which contained 80 coolies, had got alongside the s.a. Ben Lomond, which is being scrapped in the Bay, when the accident occurred..
The coolles scrambled to reach the gangway of the ship and this caused the boat to capsize, throwing all 30 ›men into the water. Three were drowned. *

The story of the accident and the subsequent finding of the three bodies is contained in the OVERLAND CHINA- MAIL.
On May 30 the Chief Justice gave judgment in the long drawn out family dispute which was heard during the month of March. In this case three brothers sued a fourth brother asking for a declaration that they were partners in certain businesses of which the defendant claimed that he " was, the sole proprietor.
w Judgment was given to the defendant with no relief for the three plaintifada
