'W.C. HUNG WINS FINE FINEST STROKE

SINGLES MATCH

George Choa Plays Two Excellent Sets

By F. Mela

W. CHung, of the Chinese Recreation Club, beat George Choa (Craigengower Cricket Club) by a cores of 6-2, 4-6, 7-5 yesterday in ane of the best matches played so far in the Colony tennis cham- pionships.

It was the case of the more experienced man winning, but Hung took the game so casually that at one stare it was touch and 10. George Chua played a great game and he need not be discour aged for it is my opinion that wit' more mature experience he will develop into one of the best Hong Kong trained players.

HELD TO A DRAW

CORINTHIANS BACK| FROM MANILA

The Islington Corinthians who returned here from saniia by the RMS. Empress of Japan yesterday, played their second match against the South China Athletic Associa tion at Caroline Hill in the after- noon and the thousands of specta- tors who attended were treated to a very close game, the teams shar- ing two goals.

The Chinese were the first to attack and after some midfield play Lee Shck-yau sent in a beaudfut drive which left Longman standing.

Spurred by this early success the Chinese forwards gave thé Corin-; thians a busy time and kept up a continuous attack. The teams, however, crossed over with no fur- the scoring.

PENALTY AWARDED After the interval the Islington- a different type of tans played football and as a result monopolised play.

TODAY'S MATCH

At Caroline Hill this afternoon the Islingtonians will play their tast match in the Colony. A com- bined team from South China and the Royal Navy will provide the i opposition.

MANILA TOUR

The Islington Corinthians played eight matches in Manila, winning four, drawing two and losing two. Both their defeats were by All- Manila, the first by 3-0 and the second, played on Sunday last, by 1--0.

They expressed the opinion that the referees were very poor com- pared to those who offelated at the matches in Hong Kong, and in most of the games they played in Manila the crowds were blazed and ,expressed their feelings in no un- certain terms when things were not going the right way for their sides.

No more nerves?

Not since I started with SANATOGEN

Nervousness, fatigue, forgetfulness and many other symptoms often hamper the full enjoy ment of life. You can become fit and healthy again with a course of Sanatoren. Sanatogen contains just those elements which give new health and energy to the run-down organism in a very digestible form. It strength- ens the nerves, renews the red blood cells and thus gives new strength and stamina to the whole system.

"Prof. Tobold, a well-known European authority, wrote:

"Those who are suffering from, nervOKA weakness will soon regain their former strength and joy of life."

Try Sanatogen at once. Buy it to-day and see how quickly Health and Vitality return.
