THE visit of the well-known Islington Corinthian soccer team, which is at present in Malaya, to the Colony, is not far distant and it is about time the Hong Kong Football Association

made pre- parations for holding trials to select the Colony 9.32 team.

-NOW THAT THE INTERPORT WITH SHANGHAI IS DE- FINITELY CANCELLED, THE VISIT OF THE ENGLISH TOUR- ISTS WILL BE THE MAIN FEATURE OF THIS SOCCER SEA- SON, AND COLONY SELECTORS SHOULD MAKE NO MISTAKE ABOUT THEIR TEAM.

No one team in the League this season with the possible, ex- ception of South China "B", who are not yet defeated, can lay claims to consistency in form, and for this reason alone, the selection of a 10.16 Colony side is a difficult one. We have, however, several of the old 10.20 brigade to fall back upon, and of these at least four or five should 10.24 find their way into the Colony side.

re-

I think that what the Selectors, should aim at is the best possible team the Colony can field, gardless of nationality, ther the player is in the First, Second or Third Divisions of the League!

or whe

There are three or four goal- ers in the Colony at the mo- keepers ment who can lay claim to a Colony trial, but of these I shall only con- aider Wong Wing and Hartley, as they have been in the eye recently, Wong Wing is returning to soccer in Monday's International Match.

OUR FULL-BACKS

PAST EXPERIENCES

In selecting the Colony, attack there are several facts which must be considered. Past experiences and displays in major engagements are of vital importance and for this reason alone we can rule, out Yeung Shui-yick, who failed The two full-backs to represent badly against the last Shanghai In- the Colony will be a difficult pro- terport team when playing on the blem, as there are several schools right wing for the Hong Kong Chin- of thought on these two ese. Tso. Kwai-shing, despite being men. One school

of thought a veteran of many Interports is are of the opinion that Ulrich, still our best right-winger, while of Kowloon,

is at -present the best back in the Colony but I think that this is stretching the imagination a little too far. My selection for the Probable backs are Lee Tin-sang and V. Costa, pro- bably two of our most versatile de fenders. For Possibles, give Ulrich a trial by all means, and partner him with Mak Shui-hon.

none other than Fung King-cheong- can and will probably fill the in- side-right berth.

Calvert, of the Gunners, deserves a trial as leader of the attack while Saw, of the Middlesex, who has dis- played brilliant form recently, and Bickford, are the logical choices for the left-wing combination.

The Colony cannot claim at the

Below I suggest the Probable and standing half-backs, although Possible teams for the first Colony Leung Wing-chiu, Beltraoa and Wil-trial (I sincerely hope that there liamson should fill in the Probable will be more than one or two and line, with an equally strong Pos suggest that the selected team be sible line in North, Bright and allowed to play together at least
