It is greatly to be regretted that the project has to be abandoned, for not only was the site situated among some of the most beautiful scenery in Hongkong but the land itself was ideally contour- ed for golf.

again lost, with 3, 4, 2.
Two "possibles" in five heads! Fincher becreased his lead to 12-7 and then 17-11 before Soares Wal able to recover, but it was the 3 on the 13th end that set Fincher in a winning position, for with the score 20-14 the all important single seemed but a moment away.
Soures,
however,
made д de- termined effort with two 2's on the next two heads and was then, too, within winning distance.
The 18th head, which proved the inst, was a brilliant duel. Drawing well, Fincher laid his one, and despite the efforts of Soares to rest out the shot that single remained to promote Fincher to the Second Round of the
Tournament.
Last Minute Win Though the score of 21-13 would indicate that A. Moreton had matters more or less his own) way against A. J. Coelho, such was not the case. The match Was won over the last three heads only.
Morcion opened the scoring with a single and steadily increased his lead until on the 10th end the score in his favour was 10-4. Here, in acoring streak that stretched over five heads -1, 2, 1, 1, 2-Coelho gained a one shet lead on the 18th head.
Moreton's 3 on the succeeding head, however, set Coelho back again, but the latter struggled to level terms ain at 13-ull on the 18th head. A 2 on the 19th put Moreton into a lead of that margin, but the game was not over until the succeeding head when Moreton counted 3 and left himself requiring only three to win. A one and a 2 on the 21st and 22nd heads ended the game 21-13.,
HOLLAND WINS
J. E. Noronha scored on only four of the 14 heads that were required by A. M. Holland to win 21-5. Holland drew consistently well and there was never any doubt, as to who would emerge the winner..
