has Goldman's form this' year been an improvement of that of last year and it was due to his brilliant volleying or a none too good court that gave him easy win over Captain Cannon.

In the earlier rounds Goldman was fortunate in defeating H. Owen Hughes in the first round in three sets. losing the first by 2-6. to enter the second round by an- nexing the following "two sets by scores of 6-0, 6-3. In the second round he had an easy win over C. A. Wright but had to strike his 'best form in the third round. when, he succumbed in the arst set to 0. R. M. Ricketts, who reached the semi-final round of the Colony Singles' title, by 2-8. In the succceding sets Goldman was fully extended to win his match at 8-2, 7-5, 8-6.

A. L. Sullivan who met Goldman in the finals of the Shanghai Cricket Club Singles title on ser- eral occasions is favoured to enter the final with win over H. J. Arthstrong. ..

The Club "A" Handicap Singles... has reached it's second round while the Club "B" Handicap Sin- gles has reached the third round. In the Club Handicap Doubles the second round has almost been completed and the event should be a fort- finally completed within night.
