Playing inspired too bail on Saturday, when they defeated Lincolns by six goals to two the "Club de Becrelo" went very near to lowering the colours of S. China "A" yesterday when they lost by the odd goal in seven. Playing better football than the Chinese both in attackand defence, the Recs were cer- tainly unlucky not to have turned the tables on them and a last minute penalty against them for hands robbed them of a draw.
Club proved very disappointing against S. China "A" on Sa- turday when they lost by four goals to one. With the excep- tlon of Fowler and E. Strange in the forward the and S. Strange in defence the whole team played below par,
