Scots v. Sassenachs, The annual sailing match be-
St. Andrew's tween
St. and George's at the Royal Hongkong Yacht Club yesterday, was a very successful and enjoyable function. The competitors were treated to some good sailing, and there were many exetting and exhilarating moments in the races. Team salt- ing invariably has greater attrac- tions than sailing in class cham- demon- pionships, and this was strated yesterday.
The Competitors.

St. George's: Boojum (Mr. II. J. Pearce), Gladys (Mr. H. S. Rouse), Bluenose (Mr. Paul Hodgson", Gael (Mr. F. G. Vaux), Urnula (Mr. J. L. Adams).
