H.K.F.A. MEETING.

THE CHINA MAIL,
REPRESENTATIVE COUNCIL.
[By "Rover."] The annual general meeting of the Hong Kong Football Associa- tion on Thursday last was very eventful.
“BLANKED OUT.”
CLUB'S EXPERIENCE WITH
THE "DRAGONS.”
LOCAL BASEBALL LEAGUE.
The Hong Kong. Baseball Club loat to the South China "Dragons" by three runs on Saturday in the senior baseball league.
The Chinese, having the game well in hand from the start, did not exert themselves. The Club were completely off form and had the un- happy experience of being the first side to suffer a blank-out game this season.
Three runs were scored by the "Dragons" in their first venture at bat. In the other five innings they were also blanked.
With a balance at the bank to the Association's credit of $11,800 and a balance on the Interport Ac-, count of $3,780 approximately, it is little wonder that the officials who conducted last year's football business were deserving of much praise for a record season. Con- tributory causes to the big season experienced were, of course, the phenomenal success in the league of Chinese Athletic Association who drew thousands of spectators Proulx weekly to see delightful football Burrell which will always draw, large Muccio crowds, and the presence of good Ruffin military teams which always pro- Owen Hughes vide stern opposition and fine soc- Harris Dugan Spary

The fact that the H.K.F.A. finished up with such a balance, Russikoff provided such good sport and, gen- Jester (sub.) erally speaking, gave satisfaction to local football lovers, was suff- elent to warrant all outgoing off cials being re-elected for another Aeason if they so desired.
CHANGES TO RULES. All the clubs had worthy dele. gates present. The business of the evening, under the very tactful ad ministration of Mr. R. M. Dyer (President of the Association) supported by the Hon. Dr. R. H. Kotewall, C.M.G., and Mr. W. E Hollands, Hon, Secretary-proceed ed evenly and efficiently.
Representatives appeared to be present at the meeting to da ser- vice for their clubs and support and strengthen the Association.
In this respect, Captain A. W. Austin, M.C., M.M., Royal Artillery, who typified the spirit of Army Football, and Sub-Inspector. F. T. James, of the Police, who spoke with the weight and experience of many years of Hong Kong football in its pioneer days, always held the meeting when they were "on their feet."
Captain Austin was the main- spring of the suggested altera- tions to local rules which were, carried and which, in the main.";
