CHINESE MAKE CLEAN SWEEP OF TROPHIES
Lee Wai-tong Scores Two In Kotewall Cup Final
NAVY PLAYER ORDERED OFF
(BY "PILAT"}
COMPLETING THE CLEAN SWEEP OF TROPHIES in the current soccer season, South China yesterday defeated" the Navy In the replay of the Kotewall Cup at Caroline Hilt by the score of four goals to one.
A pleasant surprise was given Chinese supporters when Lee Wal-tong turned out to lead the attack. The game was closely contested, throughout but was marred by an incident when a Navy player, Hendy, was given marching orders for alleged striking of Yeung Shiu-yick. On the other hand, the game was also spoiled by the excessive use of the whistle by, the referee.

RECREIO SHOULD BEAT INDIANS.
(By "Jack H"}
As far as I can see, the game in the lawn bowls league programme this Saturday that should prove the most interesting should be the one between Recrefo' “A” and the I.R.C.. Judging by
their per. formance so far, the Indians have Improved considerably (or can their two
successes de merely flashes In the pan?) but I am afraid the champions will prove difficult nuts to crack and, with advantage of green, should win.
In the remaining matches, the K.C.C., though "they will be play- ing away, should win comfortably against the Civil Service C.C. and the Kowloon Bowling Green should be able to account for the Kowloon Docks who so far have not won a

The Craigengower C.C. In scoring 94 shots against the Civil Service C.C. have provided the best score of the season to date. Towards this total, Dick Basa's rink, comprising A. A. Razack, L. C. R.
