Governor's Cup Final To Be Replayed Interport Soccer Win
Roughley And Fraser
Fraser Brilliantly Hold Federation Forwards
(By "SCRAMBLER")
Week-end Of Thrills At Kowloon F.C.
International Softball Series BRILLIANT FULL-BACK PLAY by Roughley and Fraser, and the fine
SOFTBALL fans had little of which to complain in all round goal-keeping of Bankier for the Association were primarily res the International Series matches at the Kowloon Football ponsible for the draw forced on the Chinese Fedoration on Saturday at the Club yesterday. Two of the three matches ended with Club Ground in the re-play of the Governor's Cup, when the two teams a one-run margin, while the score in the third was 3-1. shared six goals between them.
Tricky Inside Trio
The Chinese were always dangerous when on the move, for with Lee Wai-tong lending them admirable support, whom Hazard was unable to control, Bankier did exceptionally well when threatened, and saved on numerous occasions from the intricate Chinese inside trio of Tsao-Lee-Hyui. From the three of them, much_de-| lightful football was forthcoming, and the two wingers, Yeung Shui-yick and Hau Ching-tau were also prominent, but the former found that Pope was not only a tireless worker, but a steady defender.

The home team batted first, and though Baxter, Hung and Madar failed to stay, W. L. Rapley (47) was Major Baseball aaalsted by Goodban (22) and S. A. Gray (25) and took the score past the three figures: R. J. Fenton came in later and contributed a valuable 15, and the innings closed at 4.10 (after) having started a little late) at 136.

THE CHINESE cuties led 5-3 at the commencement of Britain's Anal Inning, having clouted in two in the third and three in the sixth frame. Britain had scored one in the second and two in the sixth, and in the final frame with one run over the home plate, had fans standing in anticipa- tion of the equaliser and possibly the winner.
But the game ended on that note, and the champions heaved a sigh of relief.
