BOXING, PROGRAMME FOR

NOV. 6.

The programme for the first H.K.B.A. tournament of the sea- son on Nov. 6 has now been de finitely arranged, as follows:

are given practice games, there is no doube but that the team will be rubly improved, Jadying solely on last Saturday's game, the other Clubs feel that the Kosbies will not make a formidable opposition, Buti "I bue ma dovts."

The Hong Kong Football Club, their rivala to-morrow, have not done too well as yet. They were lucky in defeating the "Temer" Fast Saturday. However, they should defeat the Kosbies. The game will be played on the Club ground.

R. A. Losses,

"Tamar's" Weakness.

The "Tamar" team are "playing the Club de Recreio...

The Recreio team is as yet un-i beaten, and they should acquire both points from the ""Tamar." If the game is played on the tem- porary ground, tho Portugese players, will. I think. be handicap ped. Still, they should win.

The "Tamar" XI is good, both in: the defence and in the forward line, But it la obvious, that they cannot get goals. That is the out- 'standing weakness of the "Tämar" team. The remedy lles in the for- Two friendly soccer matches wards themselves. They must in- were played yesterday.
