Sparkling badminton was seen yesterday at the Crai- gengower Cricket Club

in the Men's "A" Division League match between the Valley Club and the cham- pion YMCA squad.

The Champions won by 8-1. but the newly entered Craigen- gower team gave a grand dis- play to closely contest each game. Both their Junior players. K. Y. Tso and K. Y. Tam, show- ed encouraging form in the Doubles against the Y's veterans.

In the opening Single

match. Ramon Young was fully extend- ed by Bill Funk. After taking 1 3-0 lead, Funk kept slightly ahead in the neck-and-neck struggle at 6-5 and 11-10. Inabi- lity to last the pace forced Funk into several errors at this stage to allow Young to romp home by
