K.C.C. PROSPECTS FOR

THE CHAMPIONSHIP

Good Batting Side; But Bowlers Badly Wanted

(From Our Special Correspondent)

Last week, I wrote an article on the

prospects of Club de Recreio in the second division of the cricket league this season. I should have really, started with Kowloon Cricket Club as they are the County Club of Kowloog, but I wanted to see more of their players, especially the new blood, before did. 50, hence the late appearance of this article.

I want to congratulate the K. C. C. on their choice of their captain this season, for I do not think they could have done better than elect Fran Goodwin for that noné too easy task. I my none-too-easy task because it is no sinecure to lead a cricket team, and I am not talking at random because I know from personal experience what it is like. The job is made even more difficult when one has to lead a team like the C. C. where there are so many people to choose from, and if anyone thinks it is not a difficult job to pick eleven men out of, say, sixty or seventy playing members, then let

bim have a shot at it!

But to return to the subject of the Kowloon team. Goodwin is fortunate to have a cricketer like E. C. Fincher

as his "lieutenant", for Teddy is one who has had very wide experience in the game, but quite apart from that, his charming personality, and last but not least, his value to the team as batsman and fielder, makes him a very desirable vice-captain.

So far as the batting is concerned, Kowloon will have to depend largely on the two Finchers, Stapleton Willie Hung, F. A. Munn, and Norman Mackay to get the runs for them. Of these, Stuan is the only new comer to the side, but in the two trial games in which he took part, he showed himself a bataman of no mean calibre. He will probably open the innings with Teddy Fincher, but it is rather too early to make any such forecast:

for

I noticed that Ivor Melndes took! part in the Hong Kong Cricket Club trial game last week-end, and as he has not figured in the two K. C. C. trials, I take it that he is playing the Club this season. McInnes is an excellent all-round man and should find a place in the Clab Art eleven His value as a bowler to Kowloon Inst year cannot be exaggerated.

do

in a convention with one of their players the other day. I learnt that Kowloon will be going all out for the senior championship and if they sta going to play the same team or week, I do not as why they should not be able to bring it off. Their weak ness is in their bowling, for Goodwin and Burnett cannot be expected to ail the work. True, Hung and Ernie Fincher are useful change bowlers, but they want a really good fast bowler and a left hander.

At thoirannual general meeting last week, Mr. R. E Lindsell, the chairman remarked that where Kowloon failed last sesson was in their bowling. The same applies to them this season, and unless they find

two more reliable bowlers, I fear they will find it hard to get the other sides out in time, in an afternoon, to wîn their matches.

Kowloon juniors will be rather on the weak side, but they are such a sporting lot that everyone enjoys a game on their ground. I wonder if A. R. F. Raves will still be playing this season, for I can remember him turning out for the K. C. O ever so many years ago, and he seems to be playing better and better every year. Some people remarked that he thrived on hitting the bowling sent down by some of the youngsters playing for the other clubs, and from personal experience; I rather agree with them!

Corroborative evidence was given by" The Mau, the sailor, who said he wit- nessed the assault.

Spanking from the dock, defendant said the quarrel had started because the complainant's lighter had no fen- don. He askel them to put some out, and they set on him. There being too many for him, he ran away."
