The winners scored the only god! of the match in the last minute of the first half by a beautiful hick hand wast from Laing which took the Kowloon gælkeeper by surprise, the all going clear into the left hand corner of the posts.

From the beginning play was very fast and became increasingly ro as the match progres ed. The frit half proved to be the better, the standard reaching a high level, 'The Club men showed alight superiority and kept the ball mostly in their opponents' half Margal, Soares and Razavet defend- ed extremely well, and led their forwards very cleverly. Laing and Lyon made strenuous efforts to score and put in many difficult

shots, which Angus (Kowloon), skilfully saved. Angus won much applause by his smart work. Railton again proved to be the outstanding man on the Kowloon dr and toiled many of the UR.C.'s attacks.

Half o minute later, the half time, whistle blew.
