The last thing i wish to do is decry the merit of the two victories scored against us by Hapoel. On the strength of the shows we put up in the first and third games we deserved nothing better than the defeats which came our way. defeats

Club "B" Most Troubled
By HKRU Decision
To Rest The Tourists
By "PAK LO”
With the major part of the Colony team sailing from here on Monday, the HKRU have very naturally decreed that all those travelling on Mon- day will not play this week-end for their respective clubs.
As a result of this the Club “F” has had a lot of trouble in finding sufficient men to make up their numbers. Most of those called on at the last moment are bankers and are unable to leave carly in the afternoon, so that it was impossible for the Club "B" to field a full side at Sek Kong anywhere near the time sche- duled.
