WHY SAILORS
GO WRONG
The advance of the Chinese footballers in recent seasons seri- ously challenges the run of Civilians' success in this competition, and to-morrow's match should be of a very keen description as both sides have very carefully selected teams on view.
The official programme for to-morrow with officials, etc., is as follows:-
Lai Wah Cup Semi-Final-kick-off 4.00 p.m.
Civilians v. Chinese, Club ground-referee, Wt. Engr. J. W.
Barber, R.N.; linesmen, Ldg. Sm. Crossley and Corp. W Lees.
Bong Kong League, Division II-kick-off 2,15 m.
K.O.S.B, Regt. v. R.A., Sookumpoo-referee, Pte. W. Lamb. R.A.F. v. South China B, Recreio ground---referec, Mr. Stokes. South China A. v. Small Units, Curoline Hill-referee, Staff Sgt.
Gilmour.
University v. Recreio, St. Joseph's ground-referee, Mr. Samy: Navy v. Kowloon, Navy ground, Happy Valley-referee, Sgt.
Toms,
The Kowloon F.C. are arrang- ing for a practice match for their Senior players.
The big match at the Valley, with the Chinese fielding a strong side, will be a great attraction, as the Civilian side is also a very strong one.
Civilians:
Queen's Regt. Res, and Chinese Athletic Reserves at Chatham- road on Saturday last, will be con- sidered by the Emergency Com-. mittee of the H.K.F.A. during next week. The Emergency Com- mittee consists of Messrs.-R. Hall (Chairman). J. Ormiston, and H. K. Lee with the Hon.

Both selected XT's are strong. the Athletic representatives pre- dominating in the Chinese. XI, which contains only 1wo of South China, which latter Club possesses several other very promising players, while the Civilian side is quite representative of the Clubs of the Colony and moreover a very strong eleven. The combination of the Chinese should stand them - in good stead and the match
should be very exciting.
•
Seeing the moderate. form the Civilian Clubs have shown to date compared with the very bright showing of the Chinese Clubs so far this season, form points to a win for the Chinese, but the Civil- ian side contains the cream of four good sides, und if the select- ed. side takes the field they should enter the Final.
The Junior programme is re- stricted and wins for K.O.S.B. Res., R.A.F., South China A University and Navy, all home teams, can be predicted with a fair amount of safety.
