INTERPORT TENNIS PLAYER SHOWS LIVE

INTEREST IN LOCAL RACING,

Twenty-four race ponies were sold by public auction at the Jockey Club stables yesterday and realised the disappointingly small total of $2,255.

in honour of the victorious Hong Kong Interport Cricket XI, has been postponed until Thursday, June 30 in order to ensure a large attendance of cricketers of the past and pre- sent generations.

Mr. Woo Lai-tin paid the highest price for Snappy Eve which HOME RUN LEADERS

has run in ten races at the Valley and been placed second on one occasion and third on another during the first half of the season. Mr. Woo Lai-tin paid $410 for Eve's pony. Blue Love, which fell to Mr. O. T. Whitten, fetched $360. This pony has been, credited with only one win in eight races at the Valley this season.

Shawnee II, Twilight, and Golden Glory fetched the minimum price of $5 each as none of them have participated at the Valley 'this season. King's Lynn has not made an appearance this season, but Mr. Chan Yeung Chal fancied the horse and went to $100 for it. Mr. Leo Frost, Hong Kong's leading jockey, bought Jupiter for $210 and Beauty Spot for $120. The former started in twelve races and was placed third once, whilst the latter has been un- placed in six events.

Little Beaver, which has one win out of six events, went to $975, but was held over, $1,000 being the reserved price. Gold Digger went to $450, but owing to its having gained third place three times in eleven events the reserved price was $500. Vesta, which has been unplaced twice, went to Jimmy Foxx hit a home run. $275 but, as the required $25 was not forthcoming, it was held over.

A WHOLE WEEK'S NEWSPAPERS IN ONE.

The great danger of a water shortage that has threatened the Colony since the beginning of May, when drastic restrictions had to be enforced suddenly, was alle. viated on June 15, when the withdrawal of all restrictions was decided upon at a conference of Public Works Depart- ment officials. This step was taken in view of an abnormal rainfall the previous day, which gave over five inches. Recently, to cope with the serious situation, group foun- inins were instituted, but these are to be withdrawn too, A full report of the shortage is contained in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL.

Mr. A. A. R. Botelho, piloting Roda's City of Shanghai home to pay the highest dividend of the day $224.60 put a fitting climax to the first half of the year's rating sea- son at Happy Valley on June 11, when the Eighth Extra Meeting was held. In spite of bad weather conditions, a bright, tone prevailed throughout, and outsiders romped home in all events except three. There was a spill when Gallant Fox, ridden by Mr. W. W. Miles was crushed on to the rails and fell, throwing the rider heavily. The meet- ing, together with details of the season's racing, is published in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL.

Hong Kong is to be the venue of a talking picture, en- titled "China Seas," which will deal with the piracy scourge on the China Coast, being laid chiefly in Hong Kong and Philippine Islands, Messrs. Ira 3. Morgan and Roy Scott both camera-men of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios, have been in the Colony taking the "atmospheric shots." An interesting interview la given in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL

The All-India Olympic Hockey eleven and World Champions passed through the Colony on the N.Y.K. Haruna Maru on June 9. A match with a representative Hong Kong team was arranged but owing to heavy rain had to be cancelled, thus depriving local hockey enthusiasts of a golden opportunity of seeing Dhyan Chand, the wizard centre-forward, in action.

On June 13, the Philippine Olympic Delegation, com- posed of three swimmers, three boxers, and a high jumper, passed through. In the V.R.C. bath the following night, the visitors shattered a number of local records, when they competed against Hong Kong champions. Détailed reports of the visits are chronicled in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL.

Two Chinese, who privately advertised themselves as qualified dental surgeons in Queen's Road Central, were fined $200 each by the Central Police Court Magistrate on June 15. For the prosecution, Inspector Murphy said that the summons was the outcome of complaints received by the Government regarding serious cases resulting from usuc- cessful operations by so-called 'dentista.
