So far the Hong Kong Rugby Football Club have been in a win- ning vein this season. They defeated the Border Regiment at Happy

points to 3 points. This evening, at 6.30, there will be perhaps the most important match of the season. This is the annual encounter between the Club and the Hong Kong and. Shanghai Bank. Both sides will turn out strong teams, and a keen contest is expected.

To-morrow, provided the ground is still playable, the Clab are to meet a team from the King's Own Scottish Borderers.

With the revival of rugby in the Colony, and the presence of so many good players, it is, as we bave already pointed out only the lack of playing space which prevents more matches being arranged.
