BORDERERS SUFFER HEAVY DEFEAT.

KOWLOON'S EASY WIN.

The first match of the water polo league was decided at the V.R.C. Jast night when the first team of the Borderers was heavily de- feated by Kowloon by seven goals to one.

Kowloon gave a good dirfley, Railton being top seven with four goals to his credit, while Simpson second two and Paget one.

Smith second the only goal for the Borderera.

The leams were as follow: Kowloon: Angus, Henry, Stoker, E. Railton, M. Railton, Simpson, Paget.
