Cancelled

The swimming gala be- tween the European Y.M.C.A. and the Austra- lian Naval Reservists which was to have been held this evening has been cancelled.

THE SPONTANEOUS response of the Hong- kong public to the War Fund oponed by this newspaper and the South China Morning Post is wonderful, and in its generosity it brings to my mind the success that Henry Cotton and his follow professionals are exporioncing in similar directions at Home. At the time of writing, the local Fund is over $100,000 (it is only a day and a half old) and in England, Cotton's exhibition |Swimming matches on behalf of the British Red Cross Fund has reached £14,000 ($224,000).

West of Scotland golfers maintain their record for. high donations. On June 2 at Troon, Cotton partnered

Alexander Kyle (amateur champion) against Richard Burton (open champion) and James Adams (professional to the Royal Liverpool Club, Hoylake, and native of Troon), and over £400 was raised.

It may have started at Bea-

where Cotton collected a further Home Cricket

golf spectators is finding outlet in offers for "eagles" and "birdies".

About 000 people followed the match at Troon during the morning, but it was greatly increased during the afternoon, Burton enriched the fund by £15 when he "shot" an "eagle", while there were about half-a-dozen birdies which netted

£ 10 each. At the 14th (170
