Although at times they looked just as work- *manlike as their opponents, the Hongkong F.A. eleven nevertheless were defeated by the Chinese Amateur Athletic Federation team by 4-0 yester- day at Carolino Hill in the charity soccer match,'

STILL SIZING UP
THEIR OWN SIDES Many Changes In Batting And Bowling Orders
Judging from the cricket played on Saturday, I have come-rightly or wrongly-to the conclusion that Captains are working round with their foams to size up their possibilities before they settle a policy for their League matches, which start next month. It is the only explanation of the various changes in batting orders and in putting on the various bowlers. They may or may not be well advised.
