(By "Wick")

THERE WAS REALLY VERY LITTLE of note in the First Division of the Lawn Bowls League last Saturday. Recreio "A" and their rivals, Craigongowor C.C., both won their matches, though the latter were held! to five shots by Hongkong F.C., and the rest ofj the programme also ended as expected;

Until either the champions or Craigengower C.C. suffer a reverse, I am afraid interest in this division will remain scant. Later on, perhaps, the question of relega- tion may rovive some of it.

The championship race in the Second and Third Divi- sions is more even, with several teams in the running in each section. Last week, Kowloon B.G.C. had a good win T.

SEASON'S FIRST GALA AT V.R.C.

THE V.R.C. will hold their first monthly swimming gala at their pool this evening at 9.30 pm. Their op- ponents will be the Lai Tsun swimming Club, and the competition promises to be the finest yet seen this season.

The race of the programmie will undoubtedly be the 200 yards free-style in which W. Sculling

Lawrence (Colony champion) will be opposed by Chan Chun- nam. They met in this event during the Championships last year, and though Lawrence won, Chan was in close attendance, and both are reported to be in fine trim.

The Lal Tsun team has already been selected, while the V.R.C. will probably be represented as below:

Kowloon F.C. also won their away engagement against Kow.. loon Tong, while Taikoo R.C., another interested team, took the points at home from Kow loon C.C.

In the Third Division, Hongkong Electric R.C., who had taicen maximum points from six matches, lost their 100 per cent. record when they visited Stanley. in spite of this defeat, the Electricians are still in a sound position.

THE week has seen some pro- gress in the Open Rinks and Open Pairs competitions, though the latter tournament has not gone as far as the Asso- elation would like. But com pared with previous weeks this has been very good indeed.
