DISCUSSION

When the Council of the Hongkong Football Association met last evening at the Sports Club they discovered that the Management Committee, in its determination to find ways and means of assuring a smoother working of the forthcoming season, had adopted a proposal which was contrary to the majority voting at the annual meeting of the Association. For this a minute of caution (it was regarded as a censure by one member of the Council) was recorded, while at the same time the meeting adopted the minutes of the management committee.

(By H. S. Scrivener)

London, July 27. Everybody with any knowledge of Davis Cup his- tory is aware that the side which can win both matches on the opening day of a tie is more or less on velvet, and that was the happy position of Great Britain, for on tho first day of play H. W. Austin and F. J. Perry overcame the two Australians, J. H. Crawford and A. K. Quist, respectively in each case in four sets.
