Thanks largely to Omar's rink. Craigengower beat the K.C.c.
The Police recovered lost form when they journeyed, to Taikoo and came away with the polls. This was an excellent achievement and was entirely due to W.E. Hollands and his men who finished alx up on Chalmer's quartette.
The Police reserves had a very different experience. Entertaining the Civil Service, they runde little fight against better bowlers and lost by 25 shots,

Jack Goodman Wins After Equalling Record.
A CHANCE MISSED.
New York, June 10. Following up his wonderful goit United
in the second round of the States Open Golf Championship at Glenview, Jack Goodman, of Omaha, Nebraska, who was runner-up in last year's American Amateur Champion- ship, won the Open Chauinionship. with an aggregate of 287.
The winner returned a card of 68 in the second round, this score being two better than Tommy Armour's first round, and equalling the lowest score over made in the history of this event..
The feature of his play was his accurate pulting, which never failed him. His scores were 76, 66, 70, and 70.
R. Guldahl, a young St. Louis pre- fessional, lost a chance of tieing with Goodman for first place by missing a four-foot putt on the last green. He finished second with an aggregate of 288, his scores being 70, 71, 7 and 71.

The two Filipino players will make their final public appearance on local courts on Wednesday, when they's will take part in exhibitions at the Chinese Recreation Club.
Weather and tennis were the | sunn chief topics of conversation at the Kowloon Cricket Club yes- terday afternoon, when the Fii- pino exponents Leonardo Gavia and Leodegario Polintan turned out to take part in the second of a series of three exhibitions during their stay in Hongkong. Polintan, from the verandah of the club house, watched the rain teom down and did not feel at all kindly disposed to it. It meant goodbye to his tennis for the day.

BETTER CONTROL.
K.C.C. members were highly de- lighted with Bertie Guest's par formance against Pollntan. Guest should have won the first set, for he was leading 4-2, but allowed Polintan to recover. However, the Kowloon player 'made no mis- take about the second and спр tured it at 6-2.
GUEST'S STEADINESS.
Guest, who is reputed for his steadiness on the court, started rather nervously, but once he had settled down, always had a stroke to counter Polintan's rnther impetuous attack and by his persistency wore the visitor down until he could do nothing right.
Polintan made the mistake of off the trying to drive Guest court. The K.C.C. exponent re-
