ANOTHER WORLD-BEATER

TENACIOUS MARKING OF ARMY DEFENDERS SPOILT M SOUTH CHINA'S ATTACKS

By I. M. MacTAVISH

A magnificent individual performance by Ho Cheung-you at the Hongkong Stadium on Saturday saw South China through to a vital victory that was never by any means a certainty until they notched their third goal when the second half was well underway.

The soldiers did the bulk of the pressing and over the whole game enjoyed The major territorial advantage. South China were always dangerous in their for- ward movements but the tenacious marking of the Army defenders prevented the Caroline Hill boys from showing their customary frills in attack,

Kwong Wah Left Behind Memories Of A Grand Fighting Team

By "TOUCHWOOD”

Ten minutes of furious, rampaging, dashing soccer decided the fate of yesterday's First Division Soccer League match between the Kowloon Motor Bus and Kwong Wah at the Hongkong Football Club.

These were the ten minutes of the second half which gave the Busmen a 3-2 victory and the Kwong Wah side their biggest disappointment, for they came so near and yet so far away to getting the equallser that would have tied the score.
