Heavy Entries Received For Macao Races
Closing Of Hongkong Season Responsible For This Occurrence
(By "Captain Foster")
With the curtain down at Happy Valley, the Macao Jockey Club is reaping the benefit of Hongkong entries for their June Race Meeting to be held at Arcia Preta on Sunday. Very heavy nomina- tions have been received for the Barra Handicap confined to the "D" class and the Monte Handicap for “E” class China ponies, and as a result the entries have been divided into two sections at the discretion of the handicapper.
Everything points to a good afternoon of racing, but non- Chinese race-goers, who are making the excursion trip, will have to bring their passports. The s... Taishan will leave at 9,30 a.m., returning from Macao at 8 p.m.

more races, has ailracted 11 racers and the trip is over seven furlongs, Shanghai has two engagements and should the owner decide to start the pony in this event, Mr. Jack Potts' candidate should register the first win of the season. Victory Life, I understand, be hard and Hogmanay has a sport-

V.R.C. WIN FRIENDLY MEETING
Victoria Recreation Club entertain- ed Chung Shing Benevolent Society Swimming Section in a friendly con- test in their pool yesterday evening before a fair number of spectators, when they won by 17 points to 13, the events being run on the points system, 3 for win. 2 for second and 1 for third.
The best event on the programme was the 100 yards breast-stroke in which J. Marques, a very young swimmer, enused an upset by snatch- ing first place from Chan Po-yung and C. Macintosh, who were battling out the last length, by four-fifths of a second. Chan Po-yung led over the Orst length and Macintosh over the second. These two were neck-und- neck in the third when Marques forged ahead to snatchi a thrilling victory. Ils spurt was well-timed and he has the makings of a coming champion.
A. K. Rumjalin clocked his fastest 100 in the 300 yards backstroke med- ley relay when he was timed at 73 sees., thus paving the way for the home team's victory in this event.
V.R.C. also won the 350 yards free- style relay for teams of alx, D. H Tayler, clocking 25 seconds, swim- ming as second man for the winning team.

All the three placed ponics (Dekko, Gold Coin and Night View) in the big cash sweep race, the Lantao Handicap, have been assigned to the first section of the Barra Handicap and the run is short of a furlong than when they clashed at Valley last Saturday. Dekko has been penalized 11 lbs. while Gold Coin (second) has been set to carry only one pound more. Night View has the same weight.
