Holland is a popular and capable bowler who, apart from his doings in the League, has had stiff struggles with the veteran Russell for third place in the Open Cham- pionship during the last two sea- sons, No better selection could}' therefore have been made for the position of the "Captain."

Brown has been a good leader for the Kowloon Docks and will in all probability play as skip.
