C.R.C. AGAIN HAVE GOOD MATERIAL (By Saladin ")

ALTHOUGH the League Lawn Tennis season

starts next Monday, many of the Clubs have not definitely selected their representatives for the "B" Division. South China Athletic Associa- tion, who won the shield last year and who are this year competing in the "A" Division, are not defending their title, so there is a certain amount In of speculation as to who will succeed them. all 10 teams have entered, two of which are from the Chinese Recreation Club.

The stronger of the two Chinese Recreation Club teams is captained by Lee Yu Wing, who has had considerable experience. in the League. He first played for South China several years ago, but recently turned out regularly for the C.R.C. He will have! several good players to draw upon, including Iu Tak-lam. Hon

Furthermore, the Association are to be commended on their action in sending a circular to all clubs on the subject of foot faulting, which is so common in the local game. From general observation, I cannot say that there has been a very, great im-
