CHINA has made practically certain of winning the Far Eastern Olympic football title as a result of a brilliant victory against Java yesterday, when as against the Philip- pines, they scored twice without reply..
TAM Kong-pak and Tso Kwai-shing, both South China
Athletic players, were the marksmen, and this was Tam's second goal in the Olympic series. China was clearly the better team, and fully deserved victory. Japan has now only to be beaten on Saturday to give China the championship.
THE Volleyball team representing China did not meet
with the same success against the Philippines yoster- day, and was defeated in three straight games. Further reverses were also met in the tonnis, when Khoo, Hooi. hye was beaten by Yamada, the Japanese ace.
