In view of the interport match at Shanghal at the end of this month the HK.F.C. (rugby: sec- tion) have asked the Navy--who Army v Civilians, Sockumpoo are providing the opposition here ground, kick-off 4 p.m London, Dec. 10.

-to turn out a XV more for the At Twickenham, the inter-purpose of testing local interport Varsity rugby match was played "possibles" than playing a serious in sunshine. There was a large club engagement. Return Axtures have been com-attendance. The ground was on

the soft side. pleted as follow:-

Cambridge beat Oxford by points to 3..

In division 1 and division II Playing, a one-back game with their goalie standing well up the section A) of the Hongkong, Submarinos defeated the Hong-Football League, cach team plays kong Hockey Club 2nd XI at the 14 matches. U.S.R.C ground yesterday by 2 goals to nil Promising sorties by the Club were spoiled by for- wards being unnecessarily far up and, therefore, off-side.

It is the second week in succes- sion that the H.K.H.C. 2nd XI has gone down.

The Submarine team were alto- "gether better in their stlckwork and combination and deserved their victory. Their forwards' were sound and struck one as being a well-balanced line with the left wing perhaps slightly the better of the two. The Naval defence worked hard keeping their Vanguard well supplied and His the goalie was excellent.

keeping well out enabled the last ine of defence to adopt a one- back game and this proved dis-

their astrous for

opponents,

especially in the second half.

When the first bully was made the Club haditen men two of whom were Naval spectators who had just finished an earlier game. Three of the Chib 2nd XI arrived fate, at intervals. The, forwards were seldom convincing as a line.. There was no cohesion and indivi dhall work was "discounted by others getting off-sider

The Club defence rendered yeoman service.. Stewart and! Ralph, in the middle line, showed untiring energy and sometimes, a waste of energy. Becher was sound, hitting cleanly. Farqu- harson was amazing but he had one lapse which led to the second goal. All over field, he was ever in the right place at the right time and hit tremendously and *afely.

Play opened with the Sub- marines maintaining pressure.. Bully followed bully in the Club 25 in quick succession. The Naval wings put in some pretty work. A beautiful movement was started by their halves, The ball was taken to the Club circle- where one or two Naval for wards fumbled. When the Club just looked like clearing Slade put in a lovely shot from just inside- the circle giving Frank no chance,

The resumption saw, the Club make a few rushes. Price ran through bat failed to pass the goalie. Two corners fell to the Club but play returned" to the Club half and stayed there till half-time.

As will be seen in the tables below seme of the clubs have now reached the half-way stage.

SICALAUK

Out of the frozen North went Steve Chekaluk, full blooded Eskimo, seeking ad- venture. He found it through the medium of a ball and glove. And now he is in a fair way to become a pitching star.

In a tremendously fast gamo Cambridge were superior in all departments, i

Uxford seldom got the ball Beyond midfeld and Turnbull, the Cantab's full-buck, kicked soundly when under any pressure. -

After a quarter of an hour Francis dribbled down cleverly, enabling Aarvold to score; C. Barlow converted..

However, if the weather re- mins as it is there should be some fine play. For fear of being erocked" fast before selection the Club mon cannot afford to go out on a hard ground. But if the ground is on the soft side the practice will be carried out more vigorously.

I am informed that the local! interport selection committee will be on duty..
