the end.

H. K. Lo pleased his admirers with a display of "book" tennis, and without performing anything brilliant, won comfortably without being called upon to concede a set, Progress was also made in the Handicap events, and supplied one for two surprise results.

The Navy have a rival ambition to that of the Somersets, namely, equalling Kowloon's, achievement of winning Shield and League in the

season. Tomorrow's same match, which may very well decide the Navy's fate in the league, will be of special interest, therefore, because the opposition is to he pra- vided by Kowloon. Current form suggeste a very even game, though Chubb's appearance at centre-for- ward for the visitors, will mean that Jarvis, McGregor and Jones will have to be on their best be: haviour. The Navy badly needed. a scoring forward on Wednesday, and a draw seems a very likely out-
