The football crowd will travel to-day to Sookunpoo, where the East Surreys first and second teams will oppose the South China first and second tears res- pectively. The junior games start as 9.30 p.m. and, as the Garrison will be making one charge for the two games, late-comers will be disappointed as the seats will all be occupied soon after the junior game starts. The juniors" met in the opening game of the typhoon weather and the match had

be abandoned early in the second balf owing to heavy rain. At the time the South China team were leading by two goals to one. The East Surreys Reserves have improved very much since that date, while South China "A" have shown a falling off. However, the junior match will be well contested and early visitors will be rewarded. On present form, the East Surreys Reserves should wie.
The senior match will most probably decide the league championship. To date, South China have dropped one point only, while the East Surreys are two down Whatever the result to-day, South China will still remain at the head of the League, for they have played one gone more than the East Surreys. The military laney their chances and with Chae So still, on the sick-list the South China defence will be weakened
The game on the Club ground between the Club and Police should be very even and a division of points is expected.
Should South China 8" cross the water to oppose Kowloon they will re turn defeated. It is rumoured that the players of the B team are all desirous of witressing the game a Sookunpoo instead of playing Kowloon.
The Club de Recreio "A" should main- tain their position in the League by a win over the University.
Kowloon Reserves will find the Sacred Heart an improved team but should just manage to beat them.
"
The Club Reserves should win against South China B," and so should the Drums against St. Joseph's B.
