Chapman brought off a wonderful low catch off White at mid-off to dismiss Oxenham. Twelve runs later Oldfield played a ball to cover and called for a run, but Hobbs returned the ball like a fash to Duckworth and Bradman was run out. The lunch interval came with the score at 326.
The draw of the week is on the Railway ground where "the Chins Athletic ate the visitors. Kowloon have been playing up well recently but the Athletic should take the points to-day.
The Caroline Hill game should be evenly contested and the result should be a division of points.

The interport team looked eon. siderably more hopeful in the second half. They pressed for the most part of the half but lost ground whenever the forwards heel- ed back and the threes were set moving.
The Faster Team,
The Marines were much the faster team of the two and played very much better together. For Shang.. hai the three-quarter" le proved wenk. Hayley played a useful game as an individual, but lay too for up. Bichard's handling was weak, and he showed a tendency to charge headfirst into the thick of the game, instead of opening it out. McGill never had a chance the whole game, but Brown minde one or two brilliant runs down the touchline. Brown was distinctly the brightest spot among the threes Newcomb's handling and kicking were excellent, but his position for defence gave him too much to do in making his opposite number.
Among the forwards Stewart and Kane were outstanding. Bilby did not prove a good winger, though in the scrums he did his share like the rest. The eight shoved well but the impression was left that they will not be really effective unti? leaven- ing up by forwards and backs left
