'TWAS FOOTBALL

Toledo, Yiu Cheuk-Yin And Chan Fai-Hung Save The Game From Utter Boredom

By I. M. MacTAVISH

At the end the Hongkong Stadium scoreboard showed that Tung Wah had defeated KMB by three goals to one and frankly there is very little else to say about the whole dismal affair. This was quite the worst first division match I have ever had to watch.

The football was too poor for words and it is a subtle reflection on the present state of our soccer that these two teams are still regarded as worthy of a place among the aristocrats in the current competition.'

FUTILITY NEW LOOK BRAVES PLAY

Club XV's Celebrate Return To Home Ground With Two Decisive Victories

By PAK LO

Both Club rugby teams celebrated their return to their home ground on Saturday after a long and enforced absence with clear cut wins. The Club "A" had a grand run out, and after scoring in the second half at a rate of better than a point a minute finished up with a final tally of 41 points (four goals, seven tries) to nil over RAF Little Sai Wan. The Club "B" in a rather disjointed game, still proved powerful enough to beat RAF Kai Tak by 21 points (three goals, one try, one penalty goal) to 6 points (two penalty goals).

CHAMPIONSHIP BALL TO

The Braves played championship softball yesterday to overcome a four-run deficit and eventually beat South China AA by 11-6 in the weekend's feature game at King's Park.
