IL. A. Alves and F. V. V. Ribeiro, holdern, won through to the Third Round at the expense of J. S. Riddell and J. C. Aitken whom they beat 20-21 after a ding-dong struggle. The Portuguese pair were very solid throughout and unruffled when being led 18-10 on the 17th end. The next head, a short one, proyed disastrous for the Police poir, who were seven shots down, Alves laying his first three woods close to the jack while Ribeiro completed the great work. They never looked back from thin

Water Polo Victory For Chung Sing
(By "Rippo")
Chung Sing Bathing Club's waterpolo team had their pound of flesh, and more, when they trounced Eastern by five goals to one, after being on level terms at the end of the first half; in a return match at Kennedy Town yesterday evening.
Eastern was the faster team, but were overshadowed in positioning, for which Chung Sing excelled.
Eastern attacked within the first] few minutes, but Che Chok-wan was unsuccessful, The ball was quickly transferred to the Eastern area by Ng Nin, who outswam Shek Kam-pul to beat Woo Cho-kin with a clever shot bouncing the ball twice before, scoring.
Within few seconds of their scoring Shul Hung-yul received a nice pass from Tommy Kew to equalise with a lovely backhand shot taken from several yards out. Both goals went through several close | shaves without, however, affecting the score.
