By I. M. MacTAVISH
Think of all the wonderful things you would want to say about a superbly fit, superbly confident, superbly successful football team. When you've done so hang them all on a South China tog and you will understand what I want to write about the brilliant performance turned in by the double champions at the Hong- kong Stadium yesterday.
Think of all your soccer superlatives
With a magnificent display of one-for-all all-for-one sarcer the Caroline Hill boys swamped the self-acclaimed powerful Kitchee side by 9 goals to 3. Even great- er than their success was the wonderful trom spirit whlelt produced (t.

Lahore, Oct. 22. England emerged from the second day of the
First Test match against Pakistan here today: in a reasonable position, but it could have been quite a bit better.
To dismiss a side for under 400 runs on this pitch was quite an achievement, though technically Pakistan declared with nine men out, Haseeb Ahsan limping after being struck on the ankle and captain Imtiaz Ahmed thereupon announcing the declaration.
