night by defeating W. T. Til- den in the final, 6-4, 3-0, 6-3, 2–6, 6–3.

It was a dine exhibiflon of tennis. by two shrewd apostles of controlled speed, not quite as pleasant to walch as a Wimbledon contest because the fight of the ball was sometimes lost

in the artificial light, yet a stimulat- ing, stubborn encounter between two men who were obviously striving in every gante for victory.

A duzen years ago, when Tilden's lethul first service could win four points in a row against any of his op- ponents, there might have been a different story, for though the Ger-

KOWLOON RETAINS LEAD IN

THE FIRST DIVISION

(By "Abe")

Kowloon and Middlesex, the two leaders of the_First Division in the Football Lengué, played a goalless draw on Satur- day, and as a result there is no change in the positions of the two teams. Kowloon, by virtue of a better goal average, still lends Middlesex in the League Table. Both the South China teams won their engagements over the week-end, the "B" re- taining its 100 per cent. record by beating St. Joseph's and the "A" having the better of the Police yesterday. Club and Kowloon Chinese again lost their matches."
