TO-MORROW'S MATCHES
AND PROSPECTS.
WILL THE C.S.C.C. WIN THIS TIME?
[BY BACK WOOD."]
League lawn bowls matches. are distributed all over the place to- morrow, with the far away grounds on the Hong Kong side all in com- Two of the most im- mission. portant games in the senior divi sion, however, are to be played in Kowloon. Taking the matches on Hong Kong grounds first, Craigen- gower will have an easy task when they receive the Police. It is pos- sible that for the first time this season the home rinks will all show a credit balance. Unfortunately, the Police are in a weaker position this season with the loss of at least three of their good players, but, they seem to be carrying on cheer fully in the hope that a victory or two might come their way as time goes on. Taikoo stay at home this week to entertain Kowloon C.C. After their good display at King's Park last Saturday, when they were forced to divide the spoils, the home team will be in n favourable position to annex the points. Taikoo suffered their worst defeat last season on the Kowloon G.C. ground, and they will be all out to wipe off old scores. I see that J. Ferguson, who has so far kept out this season. is leading one of the rinks.
Kowloon Bowling Green Club are at home to Civil Service. This match has more than ordinary in- terest because Civil Service are so far unbeaten, and they have to meet the team which accounted for, the champions last week. There is a tricky element in the middle green which might again balle any visit ing team, but apart from that, I doubt if the Valley players will succeed in keeping a clean slate.

Old rivalry in the junior division, will be revived at the Valley, where Craigengower cross over to Civil Service. Last season Craigengower succeeded in, winning both their matches, the latter one, at home, giving them the points by three ahots in an exciting last minute struggle. Civil Service, however, are now a stronger team, and have no hesitation in backing them to wid. 'Hong Kong Electric are at home to Taikoo Last: Satur- day these teams failed to make a good impression in spite of the fact that they played on their own grounds. Taking this into account, the chances are fifty-fifty. I think the Electricians would just about manage to win. Kowloon Bowling are visiting the Green juniors Yacht Club. As I have stated in theso notes before, the B.G." have a strong team which did not " show up very well in the last match. but I hope to see them winning this time by a total of at least ten shots. The remaining match is at Kowloon C.C., who receive Club de Recreio. A victory is indicated for the home team.

THREE RECORDS SMASHED.
The clerk of the weather - was kind to the masters, pupils and friends of the Wah Yan College yesterday when they held their fifth annual athletic mesting for although it was a trifle on the waria side, it was, taking everything into consideration, a glorious afternoon.
The sports were held in the South China Seld, Caroline. Hill, and at the conclusion of the races, Mr. E. Ralphs congratulated the boys on the keen way they wont in for the different results.
tennis, the league tennis season eno really be said to be in full swing. just now, and during the past week to less than 23 games have been decided. The mixed doubles com petition oponed on Wednesday, when the Kawloon Cricket Club, playing at home, registered an easy. victory over the Ladies' Recreation Qub.
During the course of the afternoon three records were broken.
The prize winners were:- 100 yards Senior Championship. Kun. Time 11.4-5seca. 1. Kung Ping Hoi; 9, Liu Kong
In the men's competitions, the Chinese and Indian Recreation Clubs have been very much to the fore, and I have no doubt they will take some beating In the senior section. I am rather inclined to back the Indians for a win, with the Chinese very hot on their heels, buf1, Liu Kong Kun; 2; Kung Cheing
Yeo. Time 25seca. (record).
I doubt very much whether any le can lower the colours of the C.R.C.. in the “B and "C" divi- sions.
In the mid-week matches, the Chinese Recreation Club won both their "B" and "O" games by 90 route, and although their opponents in each game were not rery strong, they were, navertheless, jolly good performances. A notice- able absentee in their team this year is Horace Lo.
The Indians, too, did very well in both divisions and they just missed scoring two 9-0 wins by the odd set. However, their win over the Kowloon Cricket Club was very creditable one, and providing they put in more practice. I firmly believe they will give the Chinese Recreation Club a very good fight when they meet on June 11.

There is one point I would like to dwell upon their week, and that is the question of umpires. I notice that it some of the Clubs, ne um pires are provided for league gamea, and I am sure it will be agreed that this is most unsatisfactory. The players would welcome this, for it is rather trying sometimes to have to keep score and at the same time fight tooth and nail for every single point. And then there is the ques tion of foot faulting. How on earth are the players to see that this rule is adhered to is more than I can understand, and I would sug gest that all clubs should see to it that they have umpires for all 2 lengue games.

I do not remember the exact year,. but some seasons ago, there was a sort of unwritten rule that the home team provide two umpires, and the visitors the other. That could be adopted again, surely. I do not know if there is any rule about this, but if the local LT.A. will go into this question, they will, I am sure, have the gratitude of not only the players, but of the spectators as (Continued on seas Column.)
