SOUTH CHINA "B" LUCKY TO BEAT ATHLETIC IN SOCCER "DERBY"

OPERA EVE

BEATEN

NEEDA RIDES

GREAT FINISH ON

CASTLE-RIBBON

FAVOURITE LOSES BY HALF LENGTH

WELCOME MORN THIRD IN SHANGHAI CHAMPIONS

Shanghai, November 8.

The climax of the autumn meet- ing was reached yesterday when Shanghai's best ponies cantered up the course in front of the Grand Stand to the start of the biggest race of the year-the Champions, writes the "North China Daily News".

The race itself was well and truly run. Opera Eve started a heavy favourite, with backers looking towards Rochester, Wel- come Morn and Boston Drill to come in in the event of an upset. A fine finish, however, sawi Castle-ribbon come up, with a well timed rush on the part of his jockey, to beat the famous Opern Eve by half a length.

Nine ponies went into the paddock at the ring of the saddling bell for the Cham- plons. Castle-ribban and Bos. ton Drill both looked a picture of fitness and Rochester's looks

also encouraged his supporters to put the extra $5 on.

of the most thrilling games seen in the] premier soccer League to date drew thou- sands of people to Happy Valley yesterday when South China "B" defeated the Chinese Athletic by the odd goal in five in an encounter fraught with excitement and abounding in hair-raising CONSTERNATION OF incidents.

The play was so keen that within a minute of the start, Tong Kwan of South China was warned for alleged foul play. Incidents of this kind were numerous throughout the game and towards the close tempers became very frayed.
