PLUCKY PRESIDENT'S XV

A DISAPPOINTING CUP-TIE TURN ALMOST SURE

Not a thrill in 90 dry-as-dust minutes

By J. M. M¤¢TAVISH

In a game so dull and dreary that it evon had the non-paying fans on the hillside voicing their disapproval the Hong- kong Football Association and the Chinese Amateur Athletic Federation shgrod four goals in the first leg of the Governor's Cup scries at Boundary-street yesterday. Maybe it was the affermatch of Sunday's titanic struggle at the Hong- kong Stadium; maybe it was the ill-advised decision to charge $2.40 for admission; maybe football five days on the trot is just too much even for the Kowloon enthusiasts...but whatever the reason only a handful of fans turned out to see the rival organisations in action.

DEFEAT INTO VICTORY

By "PROP"

In a hard, but rather scrappy game at Boundary- strect yesterday the President's XV defeated the 2nd New Zealand Regiment by 10 points (two goals) to eight (a goal and a penalty. goal).

With a last minute substitute at scrum-half and another at wing forward the Hongkong side were hard pressed for the first half of the game, even though they won a plentiful sup- ply of the ball, but in the second half they fought back valiantly.
