YESTERDAY'S GAME
In a midweek senior league en- counter played yesterday afternoon
at the Kowloon Football Ground, Club de Recreio defeated the home team by six goals to one.
Thanks to the clever movements of B. Gosano and Co, in the for-
ward line in the second stanza they piled on five more goals. The home team was weak in the inter- mediate line, and it was in this department that the "Recs" had the upper hand.
Kowloon was well served by Bliss who played an untiring game in the pivotal position. Knox on the left wing, although well marked by Silva Netto, found time to send across some good passes, only to see either "A.V." or Bowen Heading clear."
I the first half Recreio attack- ed and following two quick corners play was transferred to middeid. In the second half Kowloon scored through V. White.
Recreio returned to the attack and Delgado rushed through the defence to equalise.

ETON'S JUBILEE TRIBUTE

London, March 24. Eton's Jubilee tribute is to be a repetition of the famous torchlighis marches to Windsor Castle for the Jubilees of 1887 and 1897.
The march will probably take place during Ascot week, when their Majesties will be at the Castle, and when a programme of special events is being arranged.
At the previous Jubilees: Live boys marched in column to the Great Courtyard of the Castle and little variation from precedent will be made this year.

Old Etonians have been invited. to associate themselves with the event this summer. The Duke of Gloucester may take his place among them.
