Admittells they were without the services of LM.A. Razack, which meant a re-shulling of the team. with the famons Rumjahn cousins combination broken up; even so the last thing expected was the thing which happened.

TWO CONCLUSIONS.

Two conclusions can be drawn from the result, so far as the 1.R.C. are concernéd. Certainly the Rumjahn partnership should nover have been broken. It was good enough for three sets, and Bux would probably have per- formed no worse with Cassumb- hoy than with H. D. The match

IMPRESSIONS.

Impressions left by the match were that the C.R.C. will have, little couse to worry this summer" and that there will certainly be no necessity for team changes.

On the other hand the K.C.C. can probably experiment in this direction with beneficial results. Unfortunately the Peninsula club are still suffering, from a dearth of first grade players outside of the Finchers, Guest and Hyde.

The failure of the strengthened Craigengower side. against the Reerelo came as something of a surprise. None of the pairs did themselves justice. Leonard and as, did Hachiuma lost two sets Tam Yoc-fong and Tsui Yun-pui.

But these things apart, it is to the credit of South China that they lowered the colours of the potential champions.

With only the Fincher brothers capable of making an impression, the powerful C.R.C. first string enjoyed a feld day at King's Park.

The champions boasted definitely -Superior all-round balance and with Tsui Wal-pul proving an excellent successor to Yew Man-kit, their success way discernible after the first round.

At the 20th Remedios needed but one shot for game, and he made no mistake about it by scoring a
