CRICKET NOTES.

(By "Two Legs."}

The Indian Recreation Club 2nd XI are to be congratulated on win ning the Junior Division cham- pionship, after an inauspicious start this season. In their first match, which was against the University 2nd, they dropped two valuable points, by conceding a draw when they had the game well In hund.

LEAGUE CRICKET.

K.O.S.B. BEAT NAVY.

The Navy and the K.O.S.B. met in a First Division League match at Kowloon yesterday. Play be gan at 11.15 in the morning, and the military batted first, compil- ing 185 for the loss of five wickets, when they declared. Captain Dobble contributed 119 not out.

The Nuvy commenced batting at Although the Indians 2.15 p.m. and were all out in two won several matebea in succession hours for a score of 148. Venn after that, those who were follow-being highest scorer with 54 to ing their form closely did not his credit. The scores were: expect that they would come out on top of the Lengue...

I believe the players themselves would be the first to admit that they did not show consistently good form, and if proof is needed In this respect, a striking instance is their loss to the Tamar in the middle of the season. Not until their victory over the Police were "they

seriously regarded favourites for the championship. I think i was their general keeness, more than anything else, which pulled then through.

145

There were only two matches decided in the League last Satur- day-one in each division. in the senior section, Chinese R. C. were 10 match for the University. After dismissing the home team for 73 (and but for Ching who made 25, C.R. C. would have farel very much worse), University scored 270 for 9 wickets in rapid time. The feature of the game was C. W. Lam'a score of 81 not out. This was a splendid effort, gonsidering that Lam went, in No. 0.

The match between Civil Ser- vice 2nd and Indian P. C. 2nd resulted in a draw, if anything, in favour of the former team. But for the brothers Minu (both hitters, pure and simple), who put up 86 ruhs between them out of a total of 159. the I. R. C. would have found it hard to reach the three-figure mark. Civil Service had 115 for the loss of 5 wickets When time intervened, and if Sutherland had been able to turn out, his "fireworks" might have beaten the elock."

This week, the six matches down for decision are:

First Division. K. C. C. v. R.E. and S. Varsity v. K. O. S. B.; C. C. C. V. FR. C.; H. K. C. C. v. R. A.

Second Division.-C. S. C. C. v. R.. A. O, C.; Recreio v. II. K. C. Cr.

The team. I. E. and S. are very much behind with their xtures, but this hus been through no fault of their own, as they have had their hands full on account of the Chinese political situation.

The University will entertain- the Borderers at Pokfulam, and 1 should be very much surprised if the visitors do not come away with the full points.

ہو

The old rivals, Craigengower and Indian R. C. will have it out at Happy Valley, The Indians geems to have had the better of the arguments so far, and should Craigongower win on Saturday, they will not be winning cut of turn. It is not likely, however, that the IR. C. will go down, Hongkong C. C. will receive the Royal Artillery and should be able to secure a fairly easy victory.

STAGE LIFE.

ATTRACTION.

Life behind the stage and after the girls come off duty provides the main theme of the principal pic- ture now showing at the Queen's Theatre, This is "Sally, Irene and Mary," a Metro-Goldwyn produc- tion which was well received at the first showing yesterday. There is humour and tragedy in the story, which runs smoothly along and never oversteps the bounds of reasonability. As is to be expected. in a film of the type, there are some very striking theatre scenes, whilst the whole production is admirable: and the acting first-rate. stance Bennett, Joan Crawford and Sally O'Neil all the title roles. and they are admirably supported by Henry Kolker, William Haines and others.

The Gaumont news reel, also shown, is particularly interesting because it shows the Coldstream Guards and the Green Howards leaving Home for the Far East, whilst there is also a funny "take-
