The Royal Navy, who concluded their 1932-33 soccer season with a sensational win over South China,' League champions, are in the up- fortunate position of having their best players in Wei-hai-wei.

I was informed yesterday that the First Navy, though they have a Division soccer fixture on Septem- ber 30, when the League opens, will just manage to scrape together a team.

The Navy will, however, be considerably strengthened dur. ing the first week in October when four destroyers with good talent on board, are ex- pected to arrive In the Colony from the North.

The Japan Swimming Federation has nominated 14 stars, in- cluding 11 who were members of the team which swept the water speed events at Los Angeles last year, for the Manila games.

An appropriation of Yen 130,000 is provided for in the new | Japanese budget to send a delegation of some 150 athletes. Nearly 500 representatives of four Oriental nations, Japan, China, French Indo-China and the Philippines are expected to compete.

Indo-China has filed an applica- tion, which must be approved by the other participants, to sent - a team probably of 30 athletes. In addition an application was filed by Manchoukuo, but it was believ- ed likely that the Chinese would follow the policy of with-holding any recognition from the Japan- sponsored state.
