"SUNDAY HERALD" CUP FINAL

SECOND DIV.

LEAGUE

TITLE

DECIDED

To-day's Junior Programme Is Uninteresting

By virtue of their victory over the 5th A. A. Brigade, Royal Artillery, last week, the Middle- sex have now won the Second Division Championship, and in consequence there is little inter- est attached to the remaining games.

Though there is a full programme of Second Division games to-day, there is no game of particular in- terest, except perhaps the game be- tween the Middlesex and the Club.

There is still one Third Division game to be decided, between the 24th Bty, R.A. and the 20th Bty., R.A. This match was to have been mutually arranged, but has apparently been overlooked. The 24th Battery must obtain one point to secure second position in the Kowloon section, as the Air Force are at present on equal terms with them.

A point will suffice to give the Portuguese Sporting Association the Third Division Championship in their return game with the Medi- cals. The latter gave a better performance than anticipat- ed, as at most of their star players had left for home. With the re- turn of Figueirdo and Lawrence, to the team, the Portuguese should win.

JUNIOR CHAMPION OF RHK.G.C.

The Championship of the Junior Section, of the RHKG.C. has been decided, P. L. Rodgers beating G. E. Willerton in the final tie, over 36 holes, by 5 and 3.

Both teams are well representative of the talent available, although Lee Kwok-wai, South China's outstanding left-half, is conspicuous by his absence and his vacancy will be filled by Hsu King-shing, a newcomer from Kowloon Chinese.

REMAINING FIXTURES FOR THIS SEASON

The following are the remaining out- standing football fixtures for the re- mainder of rest of the season.

SATURDAY, APRIL 16 First Division St. Joseph's

There are only three First Division League League football - encounters down for decision this afternoon, but neither South China "B" not the Middlesex, who are first and second in the table, will be, in action.

The most interesting game will probably be that between the Royal Scotts and Eastern at Sookunpoo.

with both points to-day.

Kowloon, reinforced by the res turn of David Blake, to their for- ward line; should provide South China "A" with keen opposition in their encounter at Caroline Hill. The Chinese will be fielding their best possible side, although they will probably go all out for a quick win in order to conserve their energy for the following day's Sun- day Herald Cup final in which several of their players will be featured.

Club entertain the Police and.. this should be an even game with the odds on the former.
