YACHTING

PROGRAM:IE FOR THE

REGATTA

The programme for the Yacht Club regatta which has been fixed for Saturday, December 22. has

now been decided on, and will consist of the following races:- (1) Internacionật Vours, 1 mile: (23 International Pairs, 34 mile: (3) Club Fours, 1 mile.

It is some years since an inter-, national race for members of the Yacht Club was held, and it is hoped that there will be as repre sentative a turnout as possible.

As regards the Club Fours, these will be organised in such a manner as to provide a change from the usual combinations of oarsmen, which the Hong races and other events have produred.

The Canton Rowing Club have! invited the Yucht Club to take part in a regatta to be held in Cen- ton in January, and this has been accepted. An invitation has also been sent to Canton to visit Hong Kong at the Yacht Club's Closing Cruise about the end of March, and this will, it is hoped, be an ov. portunity for entertaining Canton in place of the visit which fell through on November 10.

There was no score at half-time, the game up to then being evenly contested. South China found their stride in the second, and goals were put in by Ho Choi-wing, La Chak-wan Ewo just und Chan Lui-sung and then were tied down by their managed to bronk their "duck"

opponents..

Athletic v. Police This game was played on St. Joseph's ground. it was a well contested game with the Chinese just serapping through with the only goal of the match. The first sides half was goal-less, both missing some good chances. It was anybody's game until Leung Tak-wing scored just before the final whistle. The Police had rd luck not to share the points..

P.W.D. v. Lan Long Wan This game was very keenly con- tested, and a goal-less draw was proper indication of the run of play which was of a ding-dong nature. Both teams had strong defences and these managed suc cessfully to shut the forwards out.
