:
South China will be handicap- ped by the absence of Chan Tak- fui, who dislocated his arm in the Governor's Cup game last Sunday, and Tsang Chung-wan, their full back, who is with the Eastern team in Manila,
Lee Kwok-wai will be seen in Tsang's position while Lee Tak- kee will take Chan Tak-fai's place in the attack. Chin Chi-fai will be seen on the right wing.
The only interest remaining in the League games is in the Third- Division where Signals meet 35th R.A. and Air Force play the lowly placed Shell team.
Should Signals and Air Force win to-day a play-off for the title will be necessary. Air Force should win easily but 35th R.A. may give Signals a good game.
