TENNIS DINNER.

PLAYERS GATHER AT HAPPY FUNCTION.

Thore was a sporting atmosphere at the Hongkong Hotel last night, when the Hongkong Lawn Tennis Association gave a dinner in honour of the visiting Shanghai lawn tonnis players. Speeches were brief, and a happy air was apparent everywhere.

The toast of the "Shanghai Inter- port Tennis Team" was given by Mr. H. R. E. Hancock, President of the Hongkong Lawn Tennis As- sociation, who expressed his pica- sure at having the privilege of pro- posing it. The duty was an in- ureased pleasure as he thought he was the oldest Interport player in the room that evening, having play ed his first match with the Hong- kung Interport team in 1901 (ap plause). He knew he was not only voicing the thoughts of the tennis players, but the Colony as a whole, when he said how delighted they were to be honoured with the visit of the Shanghai team

They had seen some excellent tennis during the last few days, which had been fought out in that spirit of sportsmanship which they expected to see. He hoped the teams had enjoyed the games as: much as the spectators. He hoped they had found the arrangements satisfactory, as the Association had Iried their best to make the visit as pleasant as possible for them It was indeed a pleasure to see Mr. Wade us skipper of the Shanghai sides Mr. Wade had been singles champion of Shanghai on more than one occasion, and he hoped it would be several years before he gave the game“ up.

FOOTBALL CLUB TO PLAY

BOWLING GREEN..

The following have been selected to represent the. Kowloon Football Olub in a mixed doubles tennis, mate! with the Kowloon Bowling Green Club to be played on the Former Club's courts on Sunday, commencing at 2.15 p.m.

During the afternoon tea will be served at which all Football Club members and their lady friends are cordially invited to be present: Mr. Paver and Mrs. Chubb, Mr. Hed- ley and Mrs, Osborne, Mr. Millard and Mrs. Stokes, Mr. Guest and Mrs. Bons. Reserve: Mr. Osborne and Mrs. Jackson.

Ile would like to congratulate FOR POPPY DAY FUND. the Hongkong team on their vic Lory. Last year they went up to Shanghai and they did not make such a good show, but they had now turned the tables. (laughter.)

the MP. Hancock referred to excellent displays which had been given by the various members of the two teams, and expressed ad- miration for the manner in which the Chinese had jumped to the fore- front of the tennis world. Athle ties influenced both the physique and the mind, and also did much to develop character and morale, and in addition taught lessons in the spirit of give and take and in play- ing the game. He was perfcetly. satisfied that if more of those gen- tlemen who ruled the destinies of the world played games, and thus learnt the true lessons of those games, half of the world's troubles would be swept away.

Mr. Wade, in acknowledgment of the toast, expressed thanks at the way the toast had been proposed and honoured, and said the Shang- hai team had no excuses to make for their defeat. They were sim- ply beaten by a better team. He then handed over the Shanghai flag to Mr. M. W. Lo, whilst Mrs. Staf ford Smith did likewise to Mrs. Tottenhum, the captain of the Hongkong ladies' team.

Mr. Hancock also accepted the Taggart Cup. for which the teams had, competed three times, Shang- hai having won it twice and Hong- kong once.

A Return Contest.

Continuing, Mr. Wade said that Hongkong were now under the obli- gation of visiting Shanghai "next year, and he could assure them of a warm welcome, and they would try to entertain them as well. .1.3 Hongkong had entertained the Shunghai team." He hoped that they would bring up their flags to present to them,"

Mr. M. W. Lo, captain of the winning team, also responded, and said that although they had beaten Shanghai they had learnt many lessons from them. He paid 'a trí. bute to the way the whole of the Hongkong team had contributed to their success. and said that those members of the team who were de- feated had played their part, by paving the way for their gallez- yues.

"The Guests."

1.

Mr. G. W. Sewell, proposing "The Guests," said that the Hongkong Lawn Tennis Association was of recent growth, otherwise better ar rangements would have been made for the visitors. He mentioned that notice of the team's visit had been comparatively short, and that in a small place like Hongkong it was necessary to have longer notice in order to book. up grounde, etc.

Mr. Sewell added that there were many prominent local sportsmen outside of local tennis at, the gathering. There was Mr. Ezra Abraham, president of the Kowloon Cricket Club, and the fovial "Rob bie," the club's secretary. In addi- tion there were many Chinese friends, including Mr. Wông Kwong- tin, Mr. T. N. Chau, and the Hon. Dr. Tao, all of whom he was most happy to welcome. Mr. Sewell then proposed the guests in a few well chosen words.

Chinese Prowess.

The Hon. Dr. Tso was elected to reply on behalf of the guests. He expressed himnaelf as delighted with the way in which his compatriots"

shore at tennis. Tennis was, he said a most fascinating game. Possibly that was because so many charming ladies made it their re- creation.

Dr. Tso aald that they were proud of their Chinese representa- tives, who had climbed so high up the ladder of tennis' success. Per- haps some day Hongkong would be A Wimbledon of the Far East. Every year it was increasing in size and importance.

Dr. Tuo then asked the guests to | join him in responding to the toast of the Association. The gathering then adjourned for dancing,
