Kick-off TimeA. . - Secretariza_of_Chibs should note the alteration in the times of kick- off to-day. The H.K.V.D.C. are in camp this weekend and in some of the games the play will be affected owing to the players being nway.
To-day's Frospects,
At King's Park," the game be- tween the Club de Recreio and the K.O.S.B. should be worth watch- ing
Although the K.O.S.B.'s have
hot done anything great this season, it would not come a aurprise should they beat the Recreio on their own ground. The K.O.S.R.'s have a good fish and with their share of luck, should return success- fúl:
A good game should be seen on the H.K.F.C. ground where the Club and Police are in opposition. These teams are always a good draw for they play a keen' game and there is little in it when the final whistle wounds. The Police open favourites.
The game between the "Military teams at Sekuapoo should be very even. The Queen's have had a bad i fortnight. losing to the Athletic and the Guards. They will probably come back today and take the points at the expense of the R.A.
The game of the week in the senior division is that on
the
Chatham Road ground between the Services, The Guards are going strong, while the R.A.F. show im- provement with every match... A tussle for points should be seen and the result in doubt until the last.
The 1st Division match on the Kowloon F.C. ground between Kow- loon and the China Athletic has been postponed,
Junior Games.
→ In the junior games, the Athletic and H.K.F.C. meet on the Club ground. It will be unusual to see A small Chinese crowd when the Athletic are playing. but it is understood that the first team are taking the crowd with them over to Kowloon. The game should end in favour of the Athletic.
K.O.S.B.'s Reserves are out on the Railway ground against the Kowloon juniors and a win, for the visitors is more or less. assured
The R.A. should turn the tables on St. Joseph's at Sookunpon for they went down to the College team early in the season,
The Club de Recreio Reserves will meet South China "A" at King's Park and the home team should win.
The Cuiversity failed to field a full side last week and went down by four goal to ni. South China "B7 should beat them to day.
In the "B" division, the teams that tied for the championship last season are due on the St. Joseph's ground. The College team went down by five goals to two against the Athletic last week. The game should be keenly contested and St. Joseph's should just get home. (Continued at fact of meat colum.)
