MASSACRE AT KOWLOON C.C.
Chinese R.C. Win
All Nine Sets
Chinese R.C., fielding a team comparable with the best in the [history of the Lawn Tennis League, defeated Kowloon C.C. by 9 sets to nil on the latter's courts yesterday in the "A" Division of the League.
K.C.C. secured 22 games 88 against their opponents' 54.
Tsui Wai-pui, Colony champion, and Tsui Yan-pui were both very casual in their stroke production, but the former carried W. C. Hung, who was completely off form, to three victories. Paul Kong played better than he has done for some time and Lee Wai-tong's clever drop shot and fast spin service left big gaps in the K.C.C. ranks. Luk Ding-cheong was the weak link in the C.R.C. team, and it speaks volumes for Lee that this pair won three sets.
Ernie Fincher played with three broken strings in his racket, and as a consequence the Fincher part- nership collapsed sensationally they won only seven games. The two other K.C.C. pairs played as well as they were allowed to.
C.R.C. have now only to beat I.R.C. to win the title for the seventh consecutive year.
