SEMI-FINAL...
R.A. v. SOMERSET LIGHT INFANTRY.
These teams met yesterday in the semi-final round of the Läter Services Competition at Sookun. poo, R.A. eventually gaining the day by five goals to three, after extra time had been played. The alippery state of the ground was all against good football, and the Somersets who are a very light team, will doubtless be seen to better advantage on a dry pitch. As it was, their forwards proved a fast and nippy line, and they were greatly handicapped by an injury to Palmer, who had been playing a fine game, and who was practical ly a passenger after the interval.
The Someracts set a fast pace from the outset, Bewley-Bull lead ing the forward line in dashing style. The Gunners responded with some amart mid-field work, but were slow and hesitating when near goal, several chances going astray. After 10 minutes Bewley-Bull took advan tage of a miskick by Oliver to score a fine goal. The Somersets were well on top for a time but Fletcher brought off several fine 6Yca. After the Gunners had replied by missing several easy openings, Palmer Guest and Bewley-Ball were responsible for a capital goal.
Half-time: Somersets. 9, R.A. 9. The second-half opened which some eve play. Mikkicks were common aad from one of these Bewley-Bull was presented with his hat trick," goal The Gunners replied almost Immediately Hall fumbling a shot from Faller, and giving Cotton an easy task to score.. Gid missed an absolutely open goal a moment later, and at the other end Fletcher wade a grand full length save from Bewley-Bulk R.A. were not long in farther decreasing their deficit, Gil netting after a scrimmage in the goal mouth. The Somersets fought hard to again turn the tide and only great work by Fletcher frustrated them. Three minutes from time GiN obtained the equaliser with a long shot which struck the crossbar and entered the net. Extra time went chiefly in favour of R.A. who showed better staying power than their opponents Cotton put the Gunners ahead in the first half of extra time, whilst Gill made the issue safe after the change of ends.

FINCHER BROTHERS TO PLAY TO-DAY.
After a break on account of the Races, the Hong Kong Cricket Club tournament is scheduled to resume to-day, but, at the time of writing, it seems improbable, owing to the wed ther that there will be any play this afternoon.
Several matches have been fixed. The tie in the Open Singles between Cassumbhoy and Goldman has been postponed till next week, as the latter is away from the Colony. The Fincher brothers are down to play Marton and Owen Hughes and it will be interesting to watch their form in their initial appearance is season. Lieut.
