CRICKET NOTES.

THE CLUB WIN.

The H.K.C.C, are a bit behind with their fixtures as they, with Vaiversity, have only played thres. games, and I suppose both the ad and 20th will be blank. Two they was drawn have won, and one though I heard the other day that Craigengower were desperately near victory. Last Saturday, however, the Club aover looked like doing anything else but win against the "Navy. Batger and Duckitt had

partnership and fine

the latter continued the good work after Baker had got past Batger's bat. At the end of his fine score of seventy-one Duckitt was hitting the ball quite hard, but his perfect tim- ing mado it seem as if he was hit- ting far harder than bo really was. I haven't soen Baker knocked about so unceremoniously for a long time. Owen Hughes for the second time in eight days found himself sharing a crease with the other batsman- while his wicket at the other end- was put down. It is very difficult for batsmen, who are as quick as he is between the sticks, to remem- ber that others are slower and do not have the same views as he does about the possibility of a run. It was his call, but if Armstrong de- "Anitely meant not going for it he should have said "no" so that one could hear it at the Star Ferry As it was I could not hear it in the

The history of, I think, two years ago is repeating itself. After an excellent start in the League, Craigangower have lost two matches running. The University, however, have to thank Anderson and Gater- res very largely for their victory by

The former carried his bat patiently all through the innings for afty-six, while Guterres made thirty-three.

The Club with two mere games to play than the K.0.0. are potential two points up. If they defeat the K.C.C. outright, I think they will win the league, but, if not, I favour Kowloon's chances as I know the Club find it difficult to raise their best side towards. the end of the

season.

NEW YORK, Feb. 12.

Miss Glenan Collett, the Arceri annual match is extremely good can lady golf champion, is taking for the cricket of local schools, a team of twenty women golfers to whence, it appeare, we must look England in quest of the British more and more for our future In- championship which commences on terporters. Already Anderson, whe April 12. first came to the notice of theThe championship will be pre cricketing authorities through these eeded by.. an Anglo-American matches, has obtained his Inter-women's match, which it is hoped port, and I feel sure that in the will be the forerunner of an annual future many others will join him contest on lines similar to the Walker Cup matches between British and American amateurs.

To-morrow's Games.

At the moment of writing these notes it looks a bit doubtful na to

whether there will be any games to-morrow, in any case, unless the

Bun should blaze out most unex-

pectedly, the wicket will probably be rather dead, and easy. I have referred to the Club-K.C.C. game already. The other two should be very much more open. It depends largely on the C.S.2.C. earlier bats- men as to whether they can beat the Navy or not. With a good start they might well win, as they have plenty of bowling. An unkind person the cther day said that, and added "and it is nearly al bad." We shall see however.

GRENADIER BACK AT WORK.

[Br! MORNING DEW"][

The whole of the Jardine string was exercised yesterday morn ing, and in spite of a heavy drizzle, quite a large number of "fans" were at the raile to watch the performances.

Adam and Royal Flush, the two old "ponies in their stable, are in fine fottle at the moment. The Goods and Four Clubs both ran very well, their finish being particularly good, Abel did a slow mile, but his last quarter-mile was very impressive.

Of the subs, Dunce and Dons Again are shaping well, and another good animal to watch is Bay Rhum, who is coming on nicely.

Grenadieri

one of the best subs of this season, who had been on the "walking list" recently, is back at work. He went over a blow mile and a quarter.
