In yesterday's match, which was witnessed by a fairly large crowd. Remedios proved the steadier of the Portuguese pair The first set was won by the Chi- nese with a lot to spare.

HIT HARD

In the second set, the Tsuis hit very hard but a number of their shots falled to clear the net. Gonsalves was the weak link 11 the Recrelo combination and more often than not Tsul Wal- pui scored points by placing his shots at Gonsalves.

Some excellent volleying and cross-court placing also featured the display by the Chinese pair who also obtained many points with well-judged shots that fell between their opponents and left them standing."
