However, as soon na Kwok Ying kee, an

old Eastern player, had scored with a hender for South China, the Eastern defence collapsed and did not offer nearly as much resistance as it did in the opening minutes. Only 11, King-shing, the centre-hall retained his steadiness to the end; the others were too flustered to play constructive foot- ball but kicked wildly BS Goon as they had the ball,

A CONTRAST

In contrast to the harried Eastern defence, the South China halves and backs remained calm and collected even under the greatest pressure. They offered a bulwark in which the attacking forwards could discern tow loop-holca. As a result, Eastern had very few Ecoring opportunities. the Anal score of 5-0 Nevertheless, rather faltered the South Chine Leam

After play had been in progress for 15 minutes, Kwok Ying-kee put South China in the lead with a fine header from a free kick taken by Tang Kwong-sum. He got his head to the ball as it was sailing towards past the goal-mouth and gulded it the out-stretched hands of the East- ctn goalie. Ten minutes Inter, Tang

Hongkong's Recovery Made Too Late In The Match

ONE FLOAT INFO

Shanghai clinched the Interport Lawn Bowls series on Satur»» day by winning the third match against Hongkong on the Club de Recreio green. They tied the first match at 20-20, won the second easily by 30-10 and the third by 20-17.

Peculiarly enough, however, it was Omar who gave the best performance of the four. The other three were not as rellable as had been expected.

After their win in the Second Interport, it was only natural that Shanghai would again rely on K. L. Swartzoll, J. M. C. Lopes, A. M. Gutierrez and Hugh Wallace (skip) to carry them through. Once again, these four did not let the side down.
