FIRST DIVISION
'S.C.A.A.. KOWLOON
This was the outstanding match of the afternoon and drew a fall house at the R.F.C.'s ground.
The Chinese played superior foot ball throughout and by the inter val were two clear goals ahead of Kowloon. At no stage did Kow. doon look a beaten team, but try as they would they found the Chinese, defence a bit too good for them.
Eive minutes after the start, South China drew first blood to the accompaniment of a great cheer
from their large crowd of support ers. Just before the interval they scored a second 'goal.
On resuming, the Kowloon team forced a couple of corners, but weak shooting by the forwards spoiled several opportunities. The Chinese in their turn pressed Kow loon and a clever movement be tween their right wing and inside right resulted in the hall being hendel into the net. The fourth goal came shortly afterwarda' and then the pace slowed down visibly. The Kowloon team, undaunted by their four goals deficit,, kept their end ap and just before the final whistle, were rewarded with single goal. The final score,was 4-1 in favour of South China.

NAVY v. EWO
The Navy were successful in their match with Ewos after Д hard

Both sides have much room for improvement.
