An application by the Sing Tao Sports Club for membership to the Hong Kong Football Association was allowed by the Football Council at its monthly meeting: yesterday.
The Council also agreed to allow the Chinese, Amateur Athletic Federa~· tion- ot arrange a charity match in aid of the Society for the education- and relief of youths from the oc- cupied areas.
It was stated that the Navy and Eastern will probably play a return match in aid of charity next Sunday.. Eastern was also granted permission to visit Macao to-morrow.
Mr. Walter Hanming Chen pro- posed that an honorarium of $1,000- be paid to the Hon. Secretary and Assistant Honorary Secretary.
The Chairman, Mr. W. Pryde, pro- posed an amendment that, the honor- arium be the same as last year-$750- saying that while he appreciated very much the services rendered by the- officials concerned, he felt that a fund- should be built up for the time when they would have to engage a per- manent Secretary:
The amendment was carried by four votes to three.
Though official news had not been received, the Chairman remarked be had heard Hong Kong defeated Cam- bodia by five goals to four in the Arst match of their visit to Saigon.
