HE Royal Artillery are setting a precedent this soccer season by entering two First Division teams from one Unit, and, although they finished well down the League table last year, the new teams, which will be called Lye- mun and Stonecutters, feel that they have a better chance as separate units.

Morton, above, who played for the RA Juniors for the greater part of last season, was their top. scorer. Promoted later, he repre- sented the Army in the Lai Wah and Kotewall Cup competitions.
