INTEREST IN THE LEAGUE

Craigengower-Recreio Duel Nears Settlement: Third Division Struggle

THOUGH THE DEFEAT of Recreio "A" at the hands of the Police last week infused greater interest in the fight for Senior League honours be- tween the former and Craigengower, there is little of interest in the Senior programme this after- What very probably will be the deciding match in this Division—whether there will be a replay or whether Recreio will win the shield out- right-will be the fixture between the two on September 14, when, in the re-arranged program-| me, they meet on Craigengower's green.

noon.

Recreio "A", having played 12 games, are four points ahead of Craigengower, and are at home to their “B” side this afternoon. The Valley side are at home to the In- dian Recreation Club, and neither side should be hard- pressed to win.

THE BALCONIES of the European Y.M.C.A. will be taxed to the utmost to accommodate spectators for the V.R.C.-Lai Tsun - Chung Sing - Y.M.C.A. quadrangular gala this evening.

All four Clubs have selected strong sides, and it should not be surprising if, with the com- petition thus afforded. several of Hongkong's recortis be broken.
