ASKED

DAY, BUT WHAT WAS WRONG?

By "TOUCHWOOD"

It will take a very long time for Singapore's Aw Hoe Cup players to forget their three matches in Hongkong in November, 1966. In the three games played against Hongkong for the Aw Hoe Cup, against a Hong- kong Selection and against a Combined Chinese side yesterday, the visit- ors' soccer stock was down to rock bottom.

Of the three encounters, the Aw Hee Cup match was by far the best of the lo1. At least in this match the Sing Chow hoys showed some lighting qualities. The good inter-passing and, to cap it all, they held for a while a one goal lead. Topic of the day, now that the matches are over, is what really is wrong with Singa pore soccer? Was it the cold weather that affected thoir form?

With all performances against the clock, the six-foot three-inch, 22-year-old from Plainfield, N.J., raced down the brick-red straightaway in the fastest clocking of the 15-man field as a chilled morning crowd of 10,000 cheered him on.
