AVALANCHE OF GOALS FOR EASTERN

Says "TOUCHWOOD”

The weather was dreadful. Even worse was the play in the Sing Tao-Eastern encounter when these teams clashed in a Senior Division League match at the Hongkong Football Club ground yesterday.

In what was expected to be a good match to walch for the fact that the Tigers had pulled a major upset of the season carly this month when they snatched a 3-2 win from South China, top contenders for this season's honours, there was practically nothing to shout about.

By "PAK LO”

To everyone's surprise on Saturday afternoon the Club, which had produced such an excellent record in the first part of the season, went down for the second time in succession, this time to the RAF, by 11 points (1 goal, 2 penalty goals) to 5 points (1 goat).

In the other game on the Club' ground the Navy, as expected, won comfortably over the Police by 18 points (4 tries, 2 penalty goals) to oil, while at Sek Kong in a hard battle the Army North scored 9 points (2 tries, 1 penalty goal) to Army South's 9 points (1 try, 2 penalty goals) to produce yet another drawn Diatch.
