BIRTHDAY PRESENT FOR GENERALISSIMO

(By "Referee")

A RARE treat is in store for soccer enthusiasts.

this coming Sunday when a selected All China World Olympic football team will meet a Combined Chinese eleven in aid of the funds for a present for Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek, on the South China Athletic Association ground, at Caroline Hill, commencing at 4.30 p.m.

The South China “A” team, which is comprised almost entirely of Olympic players; will not commence their League fixtures this week-end as was supposed, but will do so next week. Sunday's exhibition game should see several changes in the play of the Olympic team, who should have learned something from their European tour and their games against the Casuals, and Islington Corinthians in England.

Lee Wai-tong will probably make his first appearance in local soccer since his return from Berlin and we will be able to decide after the match whether or not he will continue to play. The Olympic team will be complete with the exceptions of Suen Kam-shun and Darkie Chan, who returned North with the Olym The Kowloon indians Tennis pic delegation, but their vacancies could well be filled by some of | Club
