South China "A" will be fully tested this afternoon, when they meet their "B" team colleagues in a First Division League Football fix- ture on the Caroline Hill ground. The "B" team will be at full strength with the exception of Tong Kwan, who is still on the in- jured list.
The Police and the Club should be engaged in a very good game on the Kowloon ground. The Club have strengthened their intermediate line with the inclusion of Hynes, although they will still be without Pote-Hunt from the pivot position.
In the Second Division to-day the Club have been considerably sirengthened by the return of Manning Railton at full-back, while Mc- Kellar, after an absence of several months, re-appears at right-half.
The club juniors meet South China, and although they are not, expected to win, will fully extend the latter.
In the Third Division the East Lanes are expected to remain at the top, as a resuit of their en- counter against the Railway.
