Mr. M. K. Lo, the President, in proposing the toast to the South China Football team, said:
"It is to me, a great pleasure and it is a great privilege to propose the toast, The South China Athletic Association Football Team.".
I am sure that no words are necessary from me to commend this toast to your cordial acceptance. But I must tell you that the 5.0.A.A. is very proud of its team, which has won, for our Association for the third time, the Senior! League Championship as well as the Senior Shield competition.
I shall not make any reference to the Lai Wah Cup and the Sunity Herald winning teams, but I feel that I ought to mention that in both of these teams many of our S.C.A.A players took part.
