UNIVERSITY "A" AND CHINESE ""Y" SUCCESSFUL

IN

WIN GAMES

"A" DIVISION BADMINTON

NO APPRECIABLE CHANGE IN THE LEAGUE TABLE

As a result of winning their respective matches last evening the University "A" and Chinese Y.M.C.A. have assumed leadership of the "A" Division of the Men's Badminton Lengue. The Club de Recreio "A" who, like the other two, have lost only one match, were not engaged, their `gamo with the "B" team being postponed.

Visiting St. Andrew's, the under- P. H. Wong and A. Chong (Chinese graduates won comfortably despite "Y") beat Chung Bnd Lam 21-7; the fact that they did not have their best Lo and Pau 21-10; best Woo full side out. C. O. Lee and C. II. and Lul 21-3. Soon, members of last year's vic- torious team, returned to the side and dropped the only game conceded by the visitors.

In the only ollier match played during the evening, the Chinese Y.M.C.A. men were never in dimeul- tics against King's College, With two good pairs in F, Ko and Y. C. Au, and Patrick Wong and A. Chong, they were assured of

six games. Their third pair Was weak, but nevertheless S. Y. Hon and K. Ko managed to take one game, at the expense of H. N. Chung and T. Lam. Chung was feeling the absence of his regular partner, S. P. Chan who was absent from the team.

Indians Gain Useful Lead In League

Decision Reached In All Senior Games

There was some very interesting cricket on Saturday last, though from the spectators' point of view, and I have little doubt from the point of view of the players as well, it was a perfectly foul day, cold and dull. The results of the matches, all of which were finished, have made the league position in the Senior Divi. sion a very interesting one.

I should not be at all sur- prised to see the Indians pull off the Shield this year, as the Club is by no means convincing and I don't think as highly of Cralgengower as foll to come off. Faced with a total a friend of mine does, who assures me that they are going to win the league!
