match is between Kowloon and the much improved Small Units XI. Both teams are improving, and Kowloor who have history behind them are my fancy for this match and should secure their first two points at Sookumpoo a ground where they have always, put up a good show.

Goldman has infused just the necessary dash in the Club's van needed, and the Club will advance slowly but surely. They posse88 the players, and will strike their proper form yet. Young Edwards of the University is keeping goal for the Club, and his performance will be watched with interest. The Navy are stronger than at the commencement of the season and are fielding a good side. The forwards are nippy and the de- fence is solid. I think the Club will have to struggle hard for a point although a division of the points is a likely result.

At Caroline Hill the South China and the R.A. should be an- other very interesting match and the home side should start fa- vourites, although they have
played on visiting grounds much 'better' this season than on their own fine playing pitch. In home matches- South China - have not been too impressive, which is rough on their supporters but if they strike their proper form at Caroline Hill they should secure the points as the ground is large and suited to speedy forwards. The R.A. are ever good fighters and will put up a big opposition and this match should be a very fine one..
