Rifles had two changes from the team which drew with South China "A" some time ago. Coyle played Inside left

South China won the toes and set the Rifles to face a weak glim- mer of sun. Royal Ulster Rifles; pressed from the start but hard luck and sterling work on the part of Lee Ting-sang and Tam Kweng- pak prevented a score Soon how- ever the pressure eased up and in

This was, how- attack Ever. fruitless' and the Proved to be short lived for South China now came away and so wot- ried the Rifles defence that they were forced to give away two more comers.

What a match of corner kicks, Back came the attack and South China had hard lines when Picker- ing missed but were granted a corner which Connor promptly saved. A few minutes later Ho Kar-keung scored another scor- cher for South China, following a melee in the Rifles goals. To add to their misfortune, Moore, the Rides' centre half became a crip- ple and had to retire. He resumed in a few minutes but remained a passenger for the remainder of the game which ended with South China running put victors by two goals to none.

Play was fairly even with Eastern press- Ing hard but the Athletic backs wave nothing away. Good com- bination by the Easterns' forwards ended in their outside left driving At the other end Lee Tak- over. ki had a great drive saved by Tang his shot Fal-ming who turned around the post.

Eastern now livened up and in a breakaway Hon Sing-to had a shot partly saved by Lam Kwan-kon but Chan Bing-lo running in miss- ed narrowly. During Athletic raids Ng Ying-kay was prominent in de- fence for Eastern. Just on half time a hand ball was given against Ng Tak-wing and Cheung Sul- hong

Play now became rather dull. Cheung Men-wing, who was play- ing a good game for Athletic,

A nice movement by Chin Chi-fun ended ini La! Wah-dal driving inches wide. Athletic pressed up to the finish. Athletic just about de- served their win. the score being a good reflection on the run of play.

EASTERN v. POLİCE

In the later stages of their en- counter with Eastern at Cause- way Bay Police over-ran their rivals. Eastern pressed at the itart and Lam Han-chi shot narrowly past the upright. Police now took matters in hand and Kong Ching had hard lines in not scoring. Police enjoyed most of the play during the first half and should have held a comfortable lead. However half time arrived with the score sheet blank.

Right from the start of the sec- ond half Paice attacked and miss- ed many scoring opportunities. Ho Chi-yung was prominent for East-

ern.

Towards the end of the sec- ond half the Police ran riot and scored quick goals per Wong Chan- yue, Ip Eel-yui (3) and Chan Winx-kun (1). Fasterns only goal was scored by Yeung King-fung.

R.U.R. v. CHINESE POLICE

On the whole it was not a par- ticularly Pleasing match Surely a much cleaner and more up-to- date standard of play must be ex- pected from an Olympic Team. To say the East of 1 their play was sometimes bordering on filthy and it did not do much to en- hance their reputation.

Only for the sterling defence of goals were allowed. those two inveterate workers, Stevens and Pickering, the score might have been much heavier as the Rifles Went the wrong way about their work and failed to play the Chinese at their own

game.
