Club de Recreio: Beltrão; Silva-Netto, Xavier; Figueiredo, C. Remedios, Souza; B. Gosano, Ward, A. Gosano, Pereira, and Santos.

Referee:-Mr. W. E. Hollands, Recreio from the kick-off at- tacked smartly; Gosano being early in the picture. Good work by the Chinese left wing almost produced a sending over

score, Ip Pak-wa a lovely centre which Chu put over the bar. After South China had frittered away several chances Gosano burst through and, giving to Pereira, the latter scored easily:

Xavier saved on the goal line with China going strong and Recreio relieved through Re- medios, who was playing well. China came away strongly and Tsang Shiu-leung, dribbling finely, crossed for Chu Kwong-lin to equalise with a fine shot, the sides being level at the interval..

A Warm Attack

South China set up a warm at- tack in the second half, Beltrao saving from Lau Mau and Ip Pak- wa close in, but China's forwards were off their game, and Fung missed two good openings.

Gosano moved swiftly on the right and beat Pau with a lovely shot under the bar. Ward added another for Recreio in a melee.
