THE CHINA MAIL,

THREE FIRST HALF GOALS SAVED EASTERN AGAINST FIGHTING NAVY SIDE

By "TOUCHWOOD"

It would have been calamity day for Eastern but for three first half. goals that probably saved their untarnished record when the Royal Navy held them to a long-drawn-out struggle before bowing out to the Chinese who eventually won by four goals to three in yesterday's Senior Division League match at Caroline Hill.

The Navy, reinforced with four new players Victors, Williams, Beck and Valerio matched their skill, courage and combination against redoubtable Eastern who are tipped to win the Senior Division Championship this year.

EASTERN'S SUDDEN RAID

Navy's custodian Payne braces himself for this sudden Eastern raid. With Eastern's Kwok Ying-tok (9) eyeing the ball for a shot at goal, the Navy weathered this raid thanks to Condie who got his head to the ball before Ying- lok could do anything.
