DISPUTE.

TUESDAY'S COUNCIL

MEETING.

A SUGGESTION.

By "Wanderer."

It is revealing no secret to state that the letter published yesterday on the subject of the disputa be- tween the HL.K.F.A. and the Chinese clubs emanated from Chinese sources, It revonls a new and striking line of argument, but, more important, it also thrown out suggestion for the settlement of the controversy.

There is much to be said for the holding of a "round table confer ence" before the issues are thrashed nut in Connell mnting. The Conn- ell will meet on Tuesday with note of the ground prepared for pacifica. tion and a great den! Banecessary heat may be engenderet in such circumstances,

Following up "Ex-Official's" sug gestion, would it not be better to limit the discussion of the matter ol to the question on Tuesday whether the H.K.F.A. is prepared the fo invite representatives of Chinese

clubs to a "round table conference. If this were agreed upon, the "conference" could be held on Wednesday, the results reported. 10 a further meeting of Council on Thursday, and the controversy sett led, one way or the other, very quickly.

If the difliculties can be got over on Tuesday without going to these lengths all well and good, but in u situation of such deliency, the time factor must not be regarded as all- important.

The Shanghai bowin Interport, team went down to a team representing the Kowloon Dock Recreation Club in game played on the Club green yester- day afternoon. It was an interesting game to watch owing to the closeness of the xiruggle, each side making a big breakaway in turn before the Shanghai tenni was finally defeated by the narrow margin of 19 shots to

Kowloon Dock drew away from the start, and left the visitor with noth- ing in the first three hands. In the neventh head however, the Shanghai team negatived this end, Peck, their skip, carrying the jack to count seven shots for his side. They failed how- ever to maintain the lead so specta- cularly taken, and the next five heads were colourless, with Kowloon steadily making up the deficit until it had Shanghai and resumed its passed lead. In the 16th hend this lead per

younger

and less experienced members of the Colony by promoting a junior cham- plonship.
