[By "SERVER.")
The past week saw a large pro- gramme of watches decided, and results have been very much the as expected. The Chinese same and Indian Recreation Clubs con- tinue to make good progress in all divisions of the League, and it is now more or less settled that they will eventually come out top of all divisions. I fancy the Indians will win the "A" hield, while the Chinese should annex the "B" and

morrow.

Cruel Lucki
Tolly tried hard to fight down the cruel luck, but fate was against him towards the end. It took ten minutes to clear. the course before
Tolley and Jones drove from the eighteenth tee. Tolloy hit a stupeu- dous ball which went for 300 yards and was right on the pin. Jones drove and his ball hit the crowd and rebounded on to the fairway.
The American ran over the grein with his second. Tolley had a great chance of laying his second shot dead, but he played a timid shot which left him eight yards short of halved in fours, Jones and Tolley then being all square.

One de- portee of British nationality was among the number.
The Chinese delegation to the Moscow Conference, consisting of twenty-one persons, took along with them two full carlonds of food, this being thought sufficient to first the delegation for three months.

As a matter of "interest, I will give the records of the two Clubs. Taking the Chinese Recreation Club first, they have won the shield on no less than seven occasions, and they have won the Forsyth Shield outright, The Indians on the other hand, have only won it twice, and below I give the dates when the Clubs carried off the shield respectively :-
1017 Chinese Recreation Club. 1919 Chinese. Recreation Club, 1920 Chinese Recreation Club. 1021 Chinese Recreation Club. 1222 Indian Recreation Club 1923 Indian Recreation Club 1926 Chinese Recreation Club. 1027 Chinese Recreation Club. 1028 Chinese Recreation Club.
Last season, when the system of scoring by nine long sets was first introduced, the Hong Kong Cricket Club won the shield for the Grat time since 1918. In 1938 there was no competition, duc, I believe, to the then unsettled state of affairs. In 1994 the Indians lost to the United Services Recreation Club after a re-play, so it will be seen that for the past ten years or so the Chinese and Indians have been' the "big noises" in local tennis, and judging by the present out- look, they will remain so for a long time yet.
Other results during the morning and afternoon are given below:-
