GLORY HANDICAP
Merry
A great deal will depend on the start in this five furlongs sprint for Macao subs and if Maker is it I believe he is the logical bet. This grey is big- hearted and not too heavily weighted. Victory Life should secure a place despite carrying top weight. I Rothesay Bay has recovered from his lameness he should also be close at the finish. As an outsider, Morning Tip should not be neglected.
CHANGSHA PLATE
This race uver one mile, for 1938 subscription griffins of the Hong Kong Jockey Club acquired by the Macao Jockey Club at the recent auction, should be a fairly evenly contest event. Mongolian Cat is about the best of this en- tire lot and should annex the pre- mier position. Mustard Macau Star are good enough to secure the remaining places.

LADIES SPRINT
Here again punters have an opportunity to test their own judgment as this closing event is connned to Macao subs that have started earlier in the afternoon
and not won. Actual racing form will be available for study and the members of the Kowloon Riding School are sufficiently known to the public. to enable enthusiasts. to pick out a good combination to Invest on

FOUR STUMPS NEXT CRICKET MOVE
Is the fourth stump the short cut to the termination of cricket's troubles?
'i
Leaders of the premier League of the country think so and, this summer, will introduce the experi- ment in match-play.
It is a vastly interesting situa- tion. The Lancashire Cricket League is not satisfied with the trend of things. Leaders at the recent annual meeting- disagreed with the new lbw law, and so got down to tackling the old problem of "brighter cricket", in a new way. Let Mr. C. A. Milford explain- he is the secretary of the East Lancashire club at Blackburn. which is sufficiently progressive to be negotiating for the services next year of Grimmett. the Aus- tralian bowler:
"Various innovations have been
made with a flew to assisting the bowler and restoring the balance
between bat. and ball.
