With their victory yesterday, South China huve netted a total of 20 goals with five against them in two outings. They beat the Navy 11-2 in their opening match. The RAF will have to do very much better than they did yesterday at Caro. line Hill if they are to win any games at all this season.

In a match markedly similar in pattern to the second international at Cape Town the identical South African team which achieved a victory of 25 points to nine there beat the British Isles by two goals, three tries, and a dropped goal (22 points) to a goal and a try (8 points) in the fourth and final international match here on September 24.

The Springboks thus shared the honours of the series, the British Isles having won the first and third matches 28-22 and 9-6 at Johannesburg and Pretoria respec- tively.
