TAIWANESE PLAY SERVICES TONIGHT

Club Meet RAF In Pentangular Tourney

By "PAK LO"

This evoning at 5.15 p.m. the Taiwanese play their last game in the Colony, when they meet a Servicos XV on the Club ground. Later in the evening at 7.00 p.m. under the flood- lights the Club and the RAF play off their outstanding Pentangular match.

At the time of going to press details of the Taiwanese XV are not avail- able as they prefer to select their XV on the day of the match, but that it will be fast and fit is a completely safe presumption.

The Spotlight of Sports Parade this week must be directed to 22 warriors, the winners and runners-up in the Hongkong stage of the FARELF Inter-Unit Team Boxing Cham- pionship, for providing a night's entertainment which will linger in the memories of many of the audience present at the Queen Elizabeth Stadium last Friday evening, and no doubt many of the wide circle of viewers of the portion televised wished that they could have stayed on. They certainly missed the more exciting bouts.

In This "big" occasion was made complete by the attendance of the CBF, Lieutenant-General Sir Edric M. Bastyan, KBE, CB, and while I doubt if a more spirited display could have been given, his presence had, I am sure, all competitors eager to give of their best to show their appreciation that he had spared the time to come and watch them,
