BRILLIANT display at centre-forward by Gurbachan Singh gave the Kowloon Indians' Tennis Club a two-nil victory over the Radio Sports Club in their Mamak Hockey Tourna- ment match at Caroline Hill yesterday.
The K.IT.C. had the game all their own way throughout the first half, but in the second the Radio dominated play.
Karnail Singh, the K.I.T.C. right back, was prominent for bis hard-hitting and well directed first time clearances. He was. however, inclined to undercut, while his partner. Kishen Singh, featured a good display by his great, anticipation ``and stickwork.
Although good individual work
was seen in the intermediate line, the half backs were not so effec- tive as usual.
Mohindar Singh, at left-half, was the best player in the line, keeping' both Jageet Singh and Surjin Singh comparatively quiet. He, however, falled to support Taram Singh, the centre-half
D. Noronha at right-half, played steadily and at times attempted to combino with Turam Singh,

INSPIRING DISPLAY BY RIDLEY
DETERMINATION WINS THE DAY
ROWLANDS' GREAT GOALKEEPING
(By "ROVER")
THE Army gained a splendid, though narrow, victory over South China at Causeway Bay yesterday, when they won the first match of the Kotewall Charity Cup by the odd goal in nine. `
Ridley, back to form with a vengeance, gave a dazzling display, and the dogged grit and deter- maination of the other players, forced the Chinese to a totally unexpected defeat.
South China played fast and delightful football in the first half, their forwards repeating the same clever tactics which were so successful against the "Athletic last week.
But for all their superiority, they could not force, a harassed defence to concede more than two goals, and in the second. period they were pegged back in their own half and frustrated at. almost every attempt...
Rowlands was splendid; many of the saves he effected were border- ing on the miraculous, and, though being beaten on four occasions, it. was only his brilliance that kept the [score down to two in the first half.

The Twelves will therefore be allowed to use booms of the bend- able type as first set on Volsheda in 1988, and followed by some of the other big class last season.

The work of the forwards was, en the whole, ragged, little cohesion being shown in their approach
movements.
Ridley was here, there and every- where in his efforts to bring the ball forward, and he inspired the whole team by his untiring and construc tive work, which was justly reward- ed by himself gaining the hat-trick' En unusual event for Ridley, who is usually content with merely pro- viding the openingstijd
Baldry was given little to do in the first 30 minutes, but proved his worth later in the game, when his speed and accuracy in placing the ball in the goalmouth gave Wong Wing many anxious moments.
Herner Disappoints
The right-wing pair, English and Horner, were not prominent to any great extent and slow at first to fit in with the rest of the line, but once they had found their feet, they were conspicious in several clever. phases in the approach movements.
