The Kowloon Cricket Club are holding their final dance of the SBSOD On Saturday, May 27, at the Clubhouse commencing at 16 p.m. sharp. Those who have attended these dances need not be told how enjoyable they always prove to be, and as this will be the last one for some months, arrangements for it will be rather on a more elaborate scale than the previous ones.

On Sunday, 21st inst. teanis players aspiring to represent the Kowloon Cricket Club in the tennis league will have a chance to prove their worth. A tournament is being held to choose the three teams, and as there are, a big number of play- ers desiring to turn out for the premier Club in the Peninsula, quite a number of matches will be played.
