Great was the surprise when Kowloon colours were lowered by the Gunners on Saturday afternoon on their own ground. A feature of their football this season is the fact that the greater is the op- position the better are their results.
They have the unhappy knack of lowering their standard to that of their opponents when good results are expected. Although they had the better of the exchanges they failed to find the net.
Sookumpoo must have had a record "gate," in fact the best of the senson, as many supporters of both the K.O.S.B. and Chinese were turned away. Those who gained admittance had value for their money by watching these two elevens go all out to be on equal terms at the final whistle.
South China "A" sent the K.O.S.B. back, to Sun Wai Camp without points. Two games without a gool must be a bitter pill to swallow when they have fifty-one to their credit.
South China "A" maintained their unbeaten record for the sea- son and now occupy third berth in the league table, having lost one point only in the seven games played. Two Junior games were postponed-Chinese “B” versus Chinese “A” and Club versus Ewo.
