A BIG WIN-
London, Nov. 15. Seldom have the Hong Kong and Shanghai Bank run up so convincing ly large a balance of points against. their great rivals, the Chartered Bank of India, as they did on their own ground at. Beckenham, London, this year. Hong Kong won by fournah, M. W. Whyte, half backs; B. M. goals (one a penalty) and three tries Purser, T. Robertson, C. M. Pryce, (27 points) to nothing.

flatter them, but it was not late in the game that their great superiority was so evid- ent. They could only score once in the first half, though a slope of which they might have made more use was in their favour. The Char tered Bank might have gone ahead carly in the second half, when they kept up a continuous pressure on the home line, but subsequently they. were overplayed.

For every man in the two aldes this was the match of the season, and, if neither side settled down to really effective combination, each individual player was trying to ac- complish something. There was a deal of bungling with a wet, heavy ball in the first half, and the foot- ball hardly reached the standard ex- pected of these two teams. Asome- what fortunate try-for. Turner Dorothea nearly knocked on'in tüking his pass | Colleen was the only score, in the first Rolla

Hutton was mainly responsible | Ailsa
for the next try, though it .could never have been achieved without
the pace of Turner, and that segm- ed to be the turning point in the game. Nothing succeeds like sue?. cess, and the knowledge that they had got their opponents "on the run" seemed to act like magic on the Hong Kong players. Where passes had been ill-delivered, and.. dropped on the ground, they became good passes and easily accopted, and a series of movements; too swiftly, conceived and executed for a rapid- ly tiring defence, became assertive, The Chartered, added to their other, troubles, lost the services of Pryce, one of their most effective sjjoilers in a spoiling pack, who sprained his ank and in the last quarter of an hour the score against them was al- most doubled,
