Soccer "Stars" Transfer Affections

(By "ROVER")

Hopes which were at one time entertained that the local 1949/1950 soccer_season_would, with the large increase in Service personnel, prove to be the most interesting for many years, are not likely to matorialise.

The reason is that a number of Chinese soccer "stars" including players who have represent- ed China at the Olympic Games have thrown in their lot with a Second Division Club.

It is dificult to understand what the Second Division Club in question will be with so many players as it will only need, at the most, the services of 14 of the-
