WEEK-END SPORT REVIEW

could not be expected to make the "frat case, the civilian team should give the Navy a good run for their two points.
The biggest threat to the Indiana, was only natural that be ls H. Owen Hughes, both in batting and bowling, for if he is allowed to get going, then I am very much afraid it will be a sad story for the Scokunroc team who not only do not like, but actually cannot play slow bowling. R. D. Gillespie may make some runs and also T. E. Pearce but he also does not like slows and may find A. R. Minu and A. H. Madar too much to cope with A. C. 1. Bowker and R. L. Holden the Club speed merchants, will not I think, prove of much danger to the LR.C. bats, and if one of them gets going at all, I am in- correspondence. clined to think it will be the tot-local mer Colony fast bowler as Holden, despite a season with the first eleven, is still somewhat rɔw.
There will be three men in the LR.C. side who will be playing their first senior League game of the season, namely A. A. Rumjahn, J. 3. Abdul-Carreem and M. el Arculli. They have all had con- siderable experience in First Di- vision cricket and while the first named has not had much cricket for a couple of years, Abdul-Cur-

WEEK-END SCHEDULE Several important games

are
which, besides two First Division xtures,, Include matches in tho Shield competitions.
Recrelo will be fielding their best team against South China "A" in their Senior Shield encounter. The Portuguese gave a very good. ac-
reem and Arculli have been figur-count of themselves last week
when they easily vanquished the Eastern in a First League Axture and revealed a smooth-working.
ing with considerable success in the Second Division and it is be- cause of the consistent form they havehown that they are in to-machine. Recreio will stand out day's side,
In his three matches in recent weeks, Arthur Rumjahn has shown that he is still a very useful man with the bat and I will not be at all surprised to see him come off with a useful score to-day He is. in addition, a very useful, slow
bowler and an excellent fled.
It will be a great game and may the better team win!

The Fusiliers are pitted against South China "B" in the Senior † Shield and this encounter, which Is to take place to-morrow, will, no doubt, be the "high-light" of this week's football. The Chinese appear to be in the advantage but the Welsh will be quite capable of. providing them with a close game. Still, South China "B" should suc- ceed in eliminating their rivals to-
morrow.

The other First League fixture is the encounter between St. Joseph's and the Police. Although the lat- the ter sprang a surprise over Kowloonites last week, their form did not impress me as being cap- able to deal similarly with the Saints to-morrow.
St. Joseph's revealed good form in their fixture last week-end when they shared points with South China "B" and they should, therefore, be expect ed to deal easily with the Police to-morrow.

Football
(BL JAY MARTIN) Unless a better understanding is going to exist between the Hong Kong-Football Association and the Bouth China Association, compli-. cations similar to those prevailing during the Chinese New Year, when the Shanghal Interport team- was in the Colony, will be exptt- ienced as a result of an invitation being extended by the latter body to the Islington Corinthians to tour the Far East in February next year. There are two sides to the question, and the South China As- sociation have presented theirs by' pointing out that the visit was ar- ranged for the Chinese New Year in order that they might draw a capacity gate in, lieu of the guar- antee. which they were unable to give the Corinthians. But then. the South China Association have intimated to the local "football powers" that they intend to ask the Hong Kong Football Associa- tion to release all Chinese players from the Hong Kong interport team which will visit Shanghai next year.
r
On the other hand, the F. A. feel that such a time-honoured annual event as the interport should not be postponed to another date. There are strong arguments in fa- vour of this point, but the main une which has to be considered is that at no other time In the year civilian players, whether of Shang- hai or Hong Kong, are able to ob- tuin a sufficient leave of absence from their work to enable them to participate in this interport match, The South China Association have provided an awkward situation which must be smoothed out by the Hong Kong Football Associa tion with the greatest of dip- lomacy and tact. There is a way out of this and the sooner these twp Associations come to an ami- cable understanding the less chan- ced there will be for a real dispute between these two organisations.
LETHARGIC OFFICALS
At the same meeting in which the Islington Corinthians subject came up for discussion, it was re- vealed that no effort was made by responsible officials of the Hong Kong Football Association to ap proach Stanley Gash, the Shang- hal manager when he was here, regarding the revision of the: In- terport rules. The visitor had been Tully" empowered by the Northern FA to go into the matter and it
