The Chinese team played below form and their luck seemed out. The frat goal registered against them was for an infringement in the penalty area. Stock took the kick and scored. The soldiers further increased their lead by a free kick near the goal, which Reeves converted.

At the interval the K.O.S.B. led by two goals to nil. In the second half Alexander, from the wing. scored with a fine cross-shot. South China were next successful in a raid on the soldier's goal. Somerset LI. v. Small Units By six goals to one, the Somer- 28 sets emerged winners in their 38
