KARL SCHRODER TRIUMPHS OVER BOROTRA AT QUEEN'S CLUB

CIVILIAN SOCCER "DERBY” TO-DAY CLUB MAKES CHANGES AGAINST KOWLOON

SAINTS MAY BEAT FUSILIERS

(By “REFEREE”)

THE THE most interesting Senior Division League football match on to-day's programme is the civilian "Derby" encounter between the Kowloon Football Club and the Hong Kong Football Club

game should result.

The Club are making several positional changes: Skinner will be seen at right-half instead of Drown, who is being rested. while Hill, who has returned to the Colony, will be at inside-left in support of F. Fowler. The most important feature of the Club attack, however, is the return of Elliott to the centre- forward berth.

The League cricket programme to-day will be confined to the Second Division only, though there are two friendly engage- ments in the First Division. The League fixtures have been so ar anged this year that -the senior terms will play on alternate weeks, and as a result the last batch of matches in both divisions will be played on March 20, 1937 and it is presumed, the Cham- pions versus Rest games in both divisions will follow almost im- mediately after.
