SHUTE TWIN IN EXCELLENT FORM

KOTEWALL CUP CLASH TO-MORROW

S. CHINA SHOULD

BEAT ARMY INNISKILLINGS IN "CURTAIN RAISER”

South China Athletic Associa- tion will field 11 All-China World Olympic soccer stars against the Army, the holders, in what will probably be the deciding match of the Kotewall Charity Cup series, on the Royal Naval Recreation Club ground to-morrow at Cause- way Bay. Both teams have beaten the Royal Navy.

In view of the fact that this is the major sports attraction of Good Friday, a record crowd is anti- cipated.

The following are the Kotewall Cup teams:---

South China A.A.: Pau Ka-ping; Lee Tin-sang and Tam Kong-pak; Leng Wing-chin, Wong Mei-shum and Lee Kwok-wai; Yeung Shui-yick (S. China "B"), Fung King-cheong, Lee Wai-tong (Captain), Lai Shiu-wing and Tay Quee-liang.

Army: Fus. Rowlands (R.W.F.): Rimn. Pickering (R.U.R.), Belt. Stevens (RU.R.); Fus. Evans (R.W.F.), Cpl. Campbell (RUR), Williamson (Sea- forths): Rfm

Erwin RUR), Spr. Howlett (RE.), L/CpL Miller (Seaforths), Fus. Talbot (R.W.F.).

and L/Bdr. Knight (RA.}.

Reserves:-L/CpL Connor (RUR); Pte. Webster (Seaforths). Fus. Keating (RW.F.): Pte (Seaforths), CDL. Wanklyn Pte Cook (Seaforths); Pte. Ayre (Seaforths), L/Cpl. Duffielā

KENNETH SHUTE played excellently to defeat S. S. Hussain

in the Second Round of the Colony Lawn Tennis Singles Championship at the Hong Kong C.C. yesterday by scores of: 61, 6—1.

:

Although young Shute's victory did not come as a great sur prise, the convincing manner in which he accomplished it was rather astonishing. Hussain's play was most lackadaisical and, after losing the first two games of the match, he appeared to make very little effort to hold his youthful opponent.
