LEAGUE AND SHIELD

WINNERS.

H.K.F.A. Council Present Souvenirs.

At a meeting of the Hong Kong Football Association Council

last evening, it was decided to present small shields and cups to the win- ners and runners-up in the Shield: and League competitions,

Several views were put forward when the matter came up for dis- cussion. It was suggested by Capt. Hayward that, in view of the small gste receipts during the past seuson, no awards be made, but on a proposition by Mr. T. G. Stokes that the winning team be presented with a replica of the Shield and League trophies, Capt. Hayward withdrew his motion.

It was finally decided that sou-: venirs be awarded but of a much smaller size than last year.

The meeting was presided over by Mr. R. K. Duncan in the absence of Mr. J. Ormiston who is indispos. Led.

RIDDLE OF HURDLER'S MAJESTIC

Was It Caused by Smoke Screen?

SYDNEY INCIDENT.

Was a smoke barrage responsible for the destruction of

one of Sydney's most promising hurdlers, when Izaak Walton met his death; at Flemington races? naks C. J. Graves, in the Sydney Referee.

Smoke blew directly across at the hurdle which brought him down, and he met his death in a most unusual fashion.

A grass fire seems to have caused the trouble, and the strong wind blowing when the Hurdle came on for decision took the smoke direct- ly in the path of the hurdlers.

Izaak Walton, one of the best. backed in the race, and actually favourite for a time, was leading the field, and simply playing with the opposition. All his jumping had been perfect up to this point. But at the smoke-screened hurdle, though he leapt all right and clear-j ed the obstacle, he stumbled on landing. Perhaps, missing a pro- per view, he went too high, and made a bad landing.
