Senior Games Go As Expected With Close Results Seen
The defeat of the "Hongkong Football Club at the hands of the Yacht Club in the Third Division/pro- vided the only upset in the League matches decided last Saturday-the results in the other patches being more or less expected. Prior to this match, the Hong- kong Football Club had had a 100 per cent. record and were leading in the League Table but as a result of this defeat they have been deposed by the Kowloon C.C. who, though having the same number of points as the H.K.F.C., have been placed at the head of the Table as they are up by more shots.
Though two of the Yacht Club skips won their games, it is A. W. Brown's performance which catches the eye. He beat V. Walker easily by 30-18. Included in his 30 shots were a five and two fours. B. E. Maug- ham, too, won for the Yacht Club, but his was only a one shot victory over. J. Russel. G. E. Costello lost to H. Pegg by 18-20.
