It is to be hoped that disagreements between the selectors and those who Iny claims to have their opinions taken into consideration are now a thing of the past. It may, per haps, be hard to please, everybody when there is a general clamour from Clubs to gain admittance, but if this year's selections could be made withcat overlooking the claims of those who should be given a place in the team, there will be a spirit of friendliness towards the team from other bowlers who would wish to see Hong Kong win. Shang- hai "surrendered the Prentice Cup to Hong Kong last September, and their team will no doubt make every effort, to recover the trophy.

On the Club de Recreio's ground on Sunday the European staff of the Hong Kong Bank were enter- tained by the Portuguese Staff at tennis, two teams of six a side playing a series of matches, and the Portuguese teams won by fairly wide margins in both serier. The results were as follow:-

Comment on the decision of the to send a Board of Control treasurer as well as a manager with the Australian Eleven to England in 1930, has been wide spread.

The board merely nounced its resolution. gave no reasons, and has been adversely criticised. Actually it had severa! reasons for the decision.

In the first place, it is not generally known that provision has always existed in the board's constitution for the appointment of a treasurer as well as a manager with touring Australian Elovena. The clause was deliberately insert- ed from a business point of view. 3 In 1921, the amount handled by the manager was £33,000; in 1825
