Omar's Rink Still Undefeated: Police May Gain Promotion.
Rink Semi-finals Next Week
CONGRATULATIONS to Craigengower C.C. on winning the championship of the First Division League, which they last won in 1936. Needing four points to place themselves out of reach, they scored a clean-sweep victory over Civil Service C.C. on the latter's green on Saturday.
That theirs is the best team in the League this season nobody will deny, In their 15 matches played to date, they have sustained only four.rink defeats, with 40 victories and a tic. One of their rinks, U. M, Omar's, have not lost a single game. All in all, a very good record indeed.
In the Second Division, Crai- Kowloon gengower C.C. did

With each of the two rival teams having three matches to play-one of which in their return-one- Kowloon Football Club would seem. to be in an almost impregnable posi-: tion. If they can win their wo other matches, they can afford losingg to Kowloon Tong,
