PROSPECTS OF TODAY'S MATCH DISCUSSED

By F. Melu

At the time of writing prospoots do not appear to be too rosy for the final of the open tennis (doubles) championship between S: A. and H. D. Ramjahn, more popularly known as "The Cousins" and Tral Wai-pal and Tui Fan-pal, or "The Brothers." on the Stand Court at the Hong Kong Cricket Club this afternoon.

Hong Kong weather being what it is, however, it will not be at all surprising If we have a perfectly bright and sunny day for it, and if the Clerk of the Weather should so decide to favour tennis fans, a first class match should be seen,

I MAKE SO BOLD AS TO PREDICT A WIN FOR THE RUM- JAHNS IN FIVE SETS.

All the four players concerned [. are in the best of form at the mo ment and curiously enough it was this four that figured in the semi- finals of the singles." Tsui Wai-pul beat S. A. Buinjahn and then went on to wrest the title from HD, "who |bad scored a somewhat surprising

And so today they will be test- ed once again by a pair that is conceded by many followers of the game an excellent chance of detbroning the cousins again. ?"

Will they be able to do so?

That is the question that has been asked time and time" again during the week but, as I stated earlier in this article. I feel the Rumjabas will just do it.

BETTER UNDERSTANDING My reason for predicting Rumjahn victory is based on the fact that they are a better combined 3 10 2 pair. It is true that, the singles.
