HONGKONG CRICKET

LEAGUE.

H.K.C.C. NOT YET FIRST DIVISION WINNERS.

It has been announced mistaken- ly that lie Hongkong Cricket Club, have already won both divialone of i the local creiket league, the error having arisen by reason of the few matches played by the Royal Artil- lory.

The Royal Artillery are in the position to top the First Division if they win their four remaining matches, and the Club loses their last game. The chances are, of course, overwhelmingly in the Chub's favour, but the First Division is nol yet won.

The victory in the Second Divi- sion is assured.
