REFEREE CHANG MISSED HOGAN'S HANDLING AND CLUB PAID THE PENALTY
By I. M. MacTAVISH
The main topic around the touchlines at Causeway Bay yesterday was equally divided between eyesight tests and the astonishing blunder by Referee Chang which robbed Club of a certain goal at a vital stage of the
game.

The bait bobbed about on the 18 yards tine and was suddenly lobbed forward, two forwards went for it, and out of a bunch of players a neat header heat goalkeeper Charlesworth and sailed towards the unprotected goal.

Eastern Win Their Sixth
Game In A Row,
Fail
But
To Please The Fans
By "TOUCHWOOD”
Eastern, the only unbenton team in the Senior Division League, gained their sixth successive victory when they defeated the Royal Air Forco by a 5-2 margin at the Police ground yesterday.
It would have been a wider margin for Eastern had there not been one miss, two misses. One miss led to another and it would have been a very sorry tale indeed had the Chinese been without Chu Wing-koung-the only sharp-shooting forward in Eastern's side.
