KOWLOON TONG & CHINESE WIN

"B" Division Badminton Encounters

(By "Aba")

With victories over the Club de Recreio and the Free Lances respectively in the "B" Division of the Badminton League last even- ing, the Kowloon Tong R.C. and Chinese R.C. are keeping within striking distance of St. John's, the League leaders, who were not engaged. Both the winning teams conceded only two games last night.

At Causeway Bay the Free Lances Look a long time to settle down. They socmed to be disturbed by the low C.R.C, ceiling, many of their high retrieving shots hitting the roof or the low-lying iron trusses. As
