The Hon. J. H. Stewart Lockhart, President of the Club, read out the names of those who had been selected by a special committee for recognition. Messrs Greenfield, Davies, R.A Cameron and Sanders obtained caps for their Ragby play, and for Association play. Messrs Hancock, Oliver, and Slado obtained badges.

Mr. Potts, Rugby Captain, then proposed the Rugby Naval team in felicitous terms. He was sure that if it were not for the Navy it would be almost impossible for them to have matches at all, as opponents would be very few and li would become very tiring to play only amongst themselves. In responding. Licht. Sir K. K Arbuthnot, R. N., drew attention to the kindness of the honorary secretaries of the athletic clabs in enabling the Navy to take advantage of the various forms of sport in Hongkong. He congratulated the Ragby section of the Clab upon lis excellent forward pack, and moreover warned the Club that the Navy would, do their best to beat them next season. He hoped that the Navy might soon be allowed the use of a belter piece of ground than the one upon which they usually played. This, he pointed out, was far from level, so many hallows being noticeable that the ground was distinctly of WAVY

character. He pointed out that the NavK) Rugby team bad goed hopes of being stronger next year, some members with another year's experience being likely to render much greater asilstance.
