CRAIGENGOWER BEAT THE LE
By virtue of a fairly easy victory acred against the Royal Engineers on Saturday, the Craigengower Club main tains its position at the top of the League table. The match, taken altogether, pro vided only ordinary cricket.
The Royal Engineers received a start from Wahl and Waller that gave promise of a respectable score. The first wicket realised 2 runs, but of the rest only Heath and White reached, double Agures, and they had to play a defensive game and were never very comfortable. Grimmett and Omar found the ground to their liking and shared the bowling hoccurs, the former capturing 5 wickets for 3
rutis.
"
Grimmett and Jex opened the Craigen- gower innings but the latter was bowled with Pascal's very first, delivery. Not until the sixth wicker bad fallen did the C.C.C. really look like winning': indeed, it was only the steady batting of Thompson combined with the freer methods of Lammert that carried the xide to victory. Abbas played a forcing innings, getting fiye boundary shots in a ncore of 2 Craigengower won by 39
runa..

A pleasing function took place on Saturday, when Mr. J. Ludio, Vice-Con sul for Sweden, on behalf of King Gustav V. of Sweden, presented to Mr. Wer Yok the Swedish Order of Wasa, First Class in recognition of services rendered to the Swedish Government. The Ordes was pffered to Mr. Wei Yuk so long ago as 1913, but he could not then be per- saaded to accept it.
Mr. Ludin, in pinning the Order on Mr. Wei Ynk's coat, spoke of the valuable service which that gentleman had always rendered to the local Consulate, and men- tioned that it was through his good offices that the big contract for the Canton Telephone Exchange was obtained by Zweden.
