the champions some anxiety. With Miss Eardley in their team reshuffle at forward should solve all difficultles:

SPORTS PARADE

Football
Referees' Association passed several interest- ing resolutions at their annual meet- ing on Monday which are to be for- warded to Hong Kong Football' Asso- : ciątion.
The first one is that qualified re- ferees should be appointed to all Sec- ond Division games as in the case of First Division games.
It is interesting to note that the first step in providing linesmen to First Division games was taken by Football. Association some few years ago. Now
20 it is resolved that Second Division games be also supplied with linesmen.
There have been some complaints -

BODY TURN
BY BEST BALL
The abundant dissemination of
golf proper
fundamentals has done much to implant in the aver- age player a proper conception of just how the golf swing should operate. Yet there are still a few who persist in standing flatfooted to the ball and taking a cut at it without any great amount of body turn. Generally speaking this fault is confined to the older player, who has taken up the

There should be a definité body turn and if this cannot be achieved when there is a ball waiting to be struck, the golfer should take the necessary steps to achieve it by swinging the club alone. Joyce Wethered, the brilliant

ONLY ONE LEAGUE BY far the most important resolution
GAME THIS EVENING
(By "ADREM")
Although there are two matches on the fixture-list, only one badminton League match will be played this evening.
This game will mark the return to the Junior League of King's College, who won the championship of this division the season before last and last season participated in the Senior League with poor results.
This evening they will entertain St. Andrew's, whose team will include two of their members who only turned from leave last week. They are E. F. Fincher and A. S. Bliss.

last
Of the St. Andrew's team of year, Henry Kew has not yet return- ed from leave while F. V. Wong is on the sick list and will not be available for some time.
Their probable line-up this evening
will therefore be:-
is that of increasing the fees by $3 all round. At present Second and Third- Division referees are paid $3 per match and First Division referees from $3 to $5 per game.
The rule about First Division re- ferees was brought in two seasons the finances of Football ago when Association were very low and dras- tic all round economy was essential. Among other economics proposed at the time was the reduction of re- ferees' fees. Several meetings between officials of Hong Kong Football Asso- ciation and the Referees' Association were held and it was at last decided that the Association should continue
Paying the referees $5 for a senior game as long as they could afford to and that when the occasion arose the referees would accept less according to the funds of the Association, but not less than $3 a game. The referees were to be notified when the new scale was to come into effect but for all matches refereed before then the old rate would be paid.
Fortunately it was not necessary to
pay the referees less.
There has been no mention about being under-paid and this resolution is no doubt a bomb- shell to the Association.

King's will be represented by S. P. Chan and P. Lam; H. T. Woo and K. L. Lui; W. C. Chung and K. H. Lo.
Game between St. John's and St Teresa's has been postponed owing to Volunteer Camp.
True the Association did make a little last season but I am afraid that they cannot yet stand additional referees' fees.
Last year when these columns men- tioned that the Referees' · Association would be seeking representation on the Football Association, the then chairman, Mr. Stokes emphatically denied any such intention and the very men who were to propose the resolution did not put the proposition forward. I will deal with this point at a later date.
