TO-DAY'S BIG TENNIS MATCH.

Although it is only their accont match of the season it is possible that the result of to-day's encounter be tween Chinese Recreation Club (1) and Craigengower will decide the "I" Division tennis championship,

These two are regarded as the most powerful teams in the division, with Reorcio, K.C.C. and Civil Service an but not very dangerouя The match is bring played at Crai- the homestera are gengower, atid hoping to tirn out their strongest team, including Hachlum, Leonant, R. Choa, F. It. Zimmern, George Laf Rnd Howard.

The rest of the programme is of small interest. Recvelo should win easily at the expence of University and K.C.C. should have no difeulty against C.B.A. Civil Service look good for a win against the Cricket Club, but LR.C. may be extended by C.R.E. (2).
