CHINESE RETAIN THE GOVERNOR'S CUP FOR THE

FOURTH SUCCESSIVE YEAR

By "SPIV"

The Chinese Amintear Athletic Federation retained the Governor's Cup for the fourth time in succession and for the sixth time since the re-introduction of the com- petition after the war by defeating the Hongkong Football Association XI by three goals to two in their second match yesterday. The first match was a 2-2 draw.

Played in a continuous drizzle, the match produced a fairly high standard of soccer with the Chinese XI again asserting their superiority in their more cohesive and more factful forward line and a thrusiful set of wing-halves.

Southampton, Apr. 13. Australia's Test cricketers will get a great welcome when they step ashore here today to start their English tour.
