INTERPORT TRIAL MAY CANCEL MATCHES ON SUNDAY

FTER a week's lapse, League football resumes to-morrow afternoon with four interesting encounters in the First Division, the present League leaders. South China "A," being

The East Lanes, who were surprised by Kowloon last week in the Senior Shield, meet St. Joseph's at Happy Valley where a close game should result. Another fairly even encounter should be that between the Fusiliers and Kowloon at Chatnam Road.

In case the Lincolns and the Navy agree to carry out their fixture on Sunday (in view of the Interport Trial), a very fast game should be witnessed, with the odds on the Navy, who have now the Hermes to add to their collection of team-suppliers,

Lau Mau is likely to make his Interport soccer debut et left-back next month.

HONG Kong will be very strongly represented in the rugby Interport against Shanghai next month, providing the fifteen players who have already been invited to make the trip are able to

With the exception of one or two, the side will almost be identical to that which has played this season in the Triangular Tournament series against the Navy and Army.

The inability of S. H. Garrod, the energetic Club Rugby Secretary and a prominent member of the Club first fifteen, to make the trip has caused profound disappointment among rugger cirdes, for if anyone deserved his place in the side it was Garrod.

A hard working Secretary and

a very useful second-row forward," Garrod has been responsible for the arranging of the Rugby pro-
