Pardoe played his usual good game and in the later stages of the game he made a few changes which made a world of difference.
The Chinese gave the Gunners no rast, their third goal coming when Hopkins tried a "first timer" and missed to let Lai Shul-wing through. From the centre kick South China again went through and Lai Shui-wing put his teata one more goal ahead with a beau- tful drive to the roof of the net.
Artillery Line-up Changed At this stage Pardoe considered it expedient to make some change in his team Clancy went to left back, Hopkins to centre-forward, Edmunds to inside-right, and Hall to left half.

CLUB AND EAST LANOS DRAW
A very good Bame was when the Club and East Lancs share two goals on the former's ground before a fairly large ga“ thering of spectators,
Although the conditions were far from ideal-there was a strong wind blowing across the field and It was raining-the Club showed a better understanding, and were: 2 inuch Improved team, although the same cannot be said for their opponents who found the condi- tions depressing,

Conditions favoured long shots! at goal--the ground arid ball were!. slippery but none of the players took advantage of this "and so possibly threw away some glorious scoring opportunities.
The outstanding feature of the game was the brilliant perform- ance of the Club halves, the pivot, Pote Hunt'and L. G. Robertson on his right performeḍ marvels “and sent up dazzling passes. Their combined efforts frustrated many a promising attack.

George Rodger was irresistable

ticipation stood him in good stead Horner was the pick of the visit-

The opening minutes of the game were fraught with excite- į ment, Howe and Horner going very close at their respective op- posing ends.

SECOND DIVISION
'VARSITY'S WIN
The University which last season ended up at the bottom of the "second, division caused a surprise 'on Saturday when they defeated Kowloon by the odd goal in three on the latter's ground, -
„The "Varsity were a goal in the lead at the interval but Kowloon equalised soon after. Blake how- ever, who played on the left wing for Kowloon seniors last season put the ssue beyond doubt for the Varsity when he scored just before the finaj: whistle. De
K.
Goon opened the scoring with a fast rising ball but Kowloon came level as a result of a penalty kick lust after the interval, taken by Everest.
- As a result of continual pressure
the Varsity were at last rewarded when Blake-went through on his own to net the final goal.

̈S. CHINA JUNIORS WIN.
South China juniors experienced no difficulty in taking full points off the Eastern "Athletic, in their "second" 'division League encounter
at Caroline Hill on Saturday.
The Eastern's inability to tacklè a man properly and fearlessly led to South China's overwhelming au- periority throughout the game and their half a dozen goals were fully merited
Sabham, skipper of the losing team had very hard luck dur ng the middle of the play when after a run down the left wing he fall- ed to score with a rising drive, the balj skimming one of the uprights, Lal Wing-on, Hu Yu-kwong. Ts Wing-on and Cheung Fak-fal (3) scored for South China.
R.A. AND INDIANS” IN GOOD GAME
ed thereafter, and the deciding goal, which came from Chan Yuk Fai about five minutes before the end, was greeted with rounds of applause from the many thousands of spectators who had anticipated a drawn game.
It was not very long after the game had started-five minutes to be exact--that Stephen scored for the Police following a mistimed kick from Lou Mau, The Visitors were playing very good football and although they were not as speed as the Chinese forwards, they made up for that with good steady passing. The Chinese tested McHardy, the Police, custo- dian several times, but the inter- porter Was not found TEO Kwal Shing was moved in from the wing position to inside right but the result was so better. and time after time, Pile was res- onponsible for breaking up the Chin- ese attack. The home team was having much the better of the argument all this time and when the whistle for half time arrived. they had bad luck in being a goal behind. -
Conditions at Bookunpoo Saturday were far from ideal with awretched diagonal wind blowing and light rain falling throughout, nevertheless · the Artillery and Young Indians gave & good BC- count of themselves in their sec- ond division game which was won by the former by the odd goal in Ave.
The Chatiners made use of the slippery ball and ground to their advantage and two of their goals were scored from almost the halt way line, the Indians' goal-keeper being unable to hold the slippery ball.

Morton gave lead in the first half with two quick goals and shortly after the interval went further ahead when Fisher got his head to a lob from Butterfield.

In the last Afteen minutes of the game the Young Indians opened their account with a goal from a penalty for hands, Hammet scor- ing from the spot kick.
CLUB JNRS. GIVE WRETCHED DISPLAY
י
A very scrappy game was seen
wanting.
On the resumption the ball was sent down the Deld to Plle, who instead of clearing was in
two minds between passing it to the goal keeper or kicking it himself. He was robbed of the ball by Teh Po Leong, who scored from two yards range with no one to beat.
Once they had drawn level, the Chinese forwards played sparkling football, but the opposing. backs were good, while McHardy at goal was superb, being responsible for many good saves.
At the other end of the fleld, Li Tin Sang was doing heroic work breaking up the Police attacks. The Chinese for- ward line had one outstanding player, Tsa Kwai Shing, and ft was to this player that the bulk of attack fell Many raids were made on the Police goal, without avall, on one occasion.
