HOME TEAM HAS A CHANCE
(By "VERITAS")
Having annihilated Kowloon Cricket Club second team to the tune of nine-love, Chinese Recreation Club to-day try conclusions with K.C.C. (1) in the mixed doubles tennis league. The match is being played at K.C.C. and promisca to provide one of the best en. counters of the season.
K.C.C.'s unexpectedly good showing against U.S.R.C. In their feat match of the season encourages then to r gard today's test with a
certain amount of confidence. There is not suflicient comparative form to any whether C.R.C. are stronger or even as strong as U.S.R.C., but paper form alone indicates they have a very use- men's singles, men's doubles and mix-ful team, and, like the U.S.R.C. are ed doubles. The fiery-headed Call-well served by their Indy players. fornian with the long hooked nose and Janes, his compatriot, 10 win the attractive smile, swept singles with the loss of seven games in two sets. lt was a good pointer the form which can be expected of him during the next fortnight.
paxt David GROUND A REAL ADVANTAGE
Even more important was the vic- tory of Rudge and Gene Mako over Wilmer Allison and Van Ryn in the Bnal of the men's doubles. This was also accomplished in straight sets and it marked the fifth success the young Americans have enjoyed over the fa mous Davis Cup combination during the past twelve months.
The fact that the match is belag played at Cox's Road is a real advan inge to the K.C.C., and it may be
Belent to turn the result in their favour. Unless Taui Yun-pul strikes his top form, the visitors may find on two pairs. themselves dependent
In this respect the homesters should enjoy a slight edge. They have a more reliable, if less brilliant, trio of men. On the other hand C.R.C. would appear to be somewhat better served by their fulles, even allowing for the fact that Mrs. Litton is not so strong as abe used to be.
If K.C.C. can touch maxlmum form they stand a 50-50 chance of winning.
