AS stated in these columns recently the great- est problem facing the selectors of the Interport football team is the centre-forward berth and it will be pleasing to followers of the game to learn that Lee Wai-tong, last year's centre-forward and captain, will be playing re- gularly for the remainder of the season. The worries of the selectors have now been set at rest by the fact that he will be available.
Lee, it is said, has lost some of his dash, but with a little more practice and training he is certain to regain the "fire" which delighted the hearts of so many of his admirers.
The Interport Committee held another meeting on Wednes- day, at which it was decided that the Interprt on Thursday, February 11, be played on the Naval ground at Canseway Bay, and not on the Club ground as in former years. The game match against the United Services at Sookumpoo.
