Div. Clash
nessed at Caroline Hill yesterday A farcical football game was wit-
when South China "B" secured both points at the expense of South China A by 4 goals to 3 in their First Division clash. Neither team was at full strength, but the "A" line up was almost unrecognisable, seven re- serves figuring in various positions, with the result that a most insipid game ensued.
