MISS MASTENBROEK SHOWS WHAT IS
LAI WAH CUP GAME TO BE REPLAYED F. A. COUNCIL UPHOLD REFEREE'S ACTION
TWO SHIELD DRAWS MADE
THE action of referee P. O. W. Payne in abandoning the Semi-
Army and the Chinese on the Causeway Bay ground on October 25. when there were still six minutes of the extra time to be played, was upheld at the special meeting of the Council of the Hong Kong Football Association held in the Sports Club yester- day and presided over by Major C. M. Manners, the Chairman. Others present were Mr. T. A. Mitchell and Commander C. D. Arbuthnot. vice-presidents, Mesurs. George She, T. G. Stokes, C. M. Alves, J. McKelvie, W. Pryde, Captain G. W. Kimm. Lieut. C. Chaplin, Mr. A. W. Bliss, Hon. Secretary and Mr. H. Smith, Assistant Hon. Secretary.
It will be recalled that the game was stopped owing to fail- ing light after the Chinese were leading by a goal scored early in the first half of the extra time. The Chinese were apparently dissatisfied with the action of the referee and at the last month- ly meeting a lengthy letter was presented to the Council on the matter.
The matter was referred to the Referees' Committee who were to go into the question.
