(By "VERITAS".)

THERE are those who refuse to acknowledge the standard of Hongkong as being compara- tive to that in England and other countries, but if any such person was present at the Cricket Club ground yesterday he would have seen sufficient to revise this uncompromising attitude.

In one of the finest games seen for a long time, and easily the best of the current championships, S. A. Rumjahn, holder of the singles title beat his cousin, H. D. Rumjahn by two sets to one, the scores reading 3-6, 6-3, 6-4.

H.D. Rumjahn renched the peak of his form in the Brst set, when he sent the champion scurrying all over the court with magnificent- ly directed drives to all corners of the rectangle. His ground strokes were impeccable and were stamped with the hall-work of artistic pro- duction and manipulation.
