Concrete Fixtures At Kowloon

(By "Birdio")

TEMPORARILY storm-minded as most other people in Hongkong are at the moment, I tried to visualise a golf match under real storm condi- | tions the other day. Golfers are as hardy a lot as lawn bowlers, and there is very little the weather can do to stop them.

Wind, I know, never stops them. It has been one of the minor moans of the Americans that the wind con- ditions of most of the tournament courses at Home have been most trying. I haven't any statistics to go by, but I seem to remember that most reports of the Ryder and Walker Cup matches carried reference to difficult wea- ther conditions.

Rain, snow aml thunder storms are the only obstacles, Not even a war can halt them at the moment. In 1915, flood-

Somtimes not even flooded greens are a drawback. In the 1936 qualify ing rounds of the Open at Hoylake and Wallasey, a terrific thunder- storm with lightning and rain swept the course, but the players struggled along endeavouring to hole out with mashie niblleks until the officials finally decided to rule out play.

International Baseball Throwing Contest

Australians Beat Americans

SAN FRANCISCO-International good will among the baseballers of California and Australia has just been further strengthened by the completion of the second annual "corres. pondence" Team-Field-Games contest between the Golden Bears and the Victoria Baseball Association of Melbourne. Initiated in 1939 by Coach Clint Evans, through a friendly challenge to the V.B.A., this event now has a regular place on the California schedule.

Unlike the initial contest (when the Golden Bears won all and V.AD. events three events), the contest, this points will be awarded on a 4, 3, 2, 1 time was decided by the results intended. providing

Royal Ascot Moves To Newmarket

LONDON, July 1 (Reuter). Some of the glories of Royal Ascot will be revived at Now- market on Wednesday and Thurs- day where subsiliulo raees for those normally held on the famous Berkshire Heath will be run. Wartime's first Ascot will be stripped of the usual glamour, such or the fashion parade and Royal Family's state arrival along the courses, but the racing will be of the highest standard, Fine Fields

With the exception of the Derby winner, Owen Tudor, which is unlikely to rua ngain until the St Leger in September, all the leading horses are engaged for the valuable prizes offer- ed by the Ascot authorities who, though unable to use their own course which Is serving other purposes, are anxious to maintain such events as the Coventry Blakes and Queen Mary Stakes for two-year-olds, St James Palace Stakes for three-year-olds and the Gold Cup.

The Royal Touch may quite possibly be provided by the King scoring a great double with his unbeaten two- year-olds Big Game and Sun Chariot in the Coventry and Queen Mary respectively.
