The strong military claven were flamissed for only 89 runs, A. P. Pereira, the Recreio fast bowler, claiming six wickets for 23. It was an excoodingly fine performance for his first League match in the Sonlor Division, and among his victims were Lt. J. P. Williams, It. Garthwaite, Capt. D. B. Michell, Capt.

SOUTH CHINA “A” HOLDING

SLIGHT ADVANTAGE

WEEK-END MATCHES

A three clear goal victory over St. Joseph's yester day placed South Chins “A” on a level point footing with that club's "B" team but with a game in hand. South China "A" have yet to lose a point while the "B" team have two draws chalked up against them in their analysis. The Borderers, despite the fact that they lost the services of two of their players through injury during their game with the Police, forced a draw.

The Lincolns and the R. A, are still struggling for supremacy in the Second Division, each holding an un- beaten record to-date. During the week-end both teams

the recorded wins against Kowloon and

Club respectively.

The Royal Navy, by defeating the Club de Recreio by four goals to two on Saturday, won their first match of the season in the Senior Division.

An error by Elms went the ball right on to Tam's foot for him to send down a nice first-timer over the bar.
