It was a rather uninteresting game, with Kowloon always the better team. R.A.F. put up a plucky straggle but could make ittle headway against the Kowloon defence, which was very sound. Aurus giving a brilliant exbibition in goal. The first half was nearly alfin favour of Kowloon, but they only scored once, Yorthey putting through after a characteristic dash through the defence. This player gave a beautiful display at centre forward. Half time: Kowloon, 1:| R.A.F...0.

F.A. AND SCOTTISH CUP MATCHES.

CARDIFF CITY ELIMINATED.

In the English League on Saturday, qaly, the two serions of Division III, played a full programme of watches. Teams in the - first and second divisions were mainly engaged in the fifth round of the Football Association Cup, the League programme being curtailed to four "games in Division I. and seven in Division II, Most of the Scottish teams were playing in the third round of the Scottish Cup and consequently there was only ong League gamo north of the Tweed.

THE FA CUP.

An unexpected surprise in the F.A. Cup 6ith round, in which eight teams now remain in the contest, was the defeat of Cardiff City (holders of the trophy) by Notta Forest, a second Division team, on the latter's ground by the odd goal in three

Both the London Clubs wOD. The Arsenal (runners-up last senson) are making a strong bid for the Cup this year. They hüd no difficulty in eliminating Aston Villa, also a good eup-fighting team. Tottenham Spurs defeated Leicester by three goals to nothing.

The autorSecond Division teams opposing each other were Manchester City and Stoke, and although playing away the honours went to Stoke."

Huddersfield, who are practically at the top of Division I., beat Middlesbro' by four goals to nit.

Blackburn, as was to be expected, disposed of. Port Vale. There was only one drawn match in the eight played. this being between Sheffield Wednesday and Sheffield. United, early team getting one goal.

The sixth round will be played on Saturday, March 3rd, and this round will decide who shall enter the semi-finals, which will be decided on Baturday, March 24th. The final will be played on Saturday, April 21st.

With the exception of Stoke and Notts Forest (Second Division) the teams competing in the sixth round are all from Division I of the League. They will be:-Manchester United, the Wednesday or Sheffield United, the Arsenal, Tottenham, Huddersfield and Blackburn.

With two London teams left in the sixth round, there seems very good chance that the trophy will once more come back to the Metropolis, for, of the teams left it is hardly likely that Stake oz Nott Forest will survive the next round, although, it is the un- expected that happens in cup ties:

The last time the Cup was won by a London,team was in the 1920-21 season, when Tottenham beat the Wolves. Will he the good fortune of Tottenham to bring the Cup back again i

THE SCOTTISH CUP,

In the Third Round of the Scottish Cup, all matches, with the exception of one, were won outright. The drawn match was that between Kilmarnock and Queen's Park, each team securing four goals.

The fourth round of the Scottish Cup will be played on March 3rd, the semi-finals on March 24th, and the final on April 14th.. Results of matches played, as cabled by Reuter, and amended League statistics are given below. FA CUP

SATURDAY'S CRICKET RESULTS.

UNIVERSITY DEFEATS

RECREIO.

NO SENIOR "LEAGUE MATCHES.

Owing to Saturday's Races there was 'an unusually small cricket pro gramme. Four friendly games were

played and one, lengue match. By defeating the Recreio on their own ground, the University have con- solidated their position as leaders of the und division. Rerpeio, the runners-up, are four points below them, so even if the 'Varsity lost their remaining.. match-which is unlikely-they would still retain their position.

By winning all their'eight matches during the season, the University have put up a very good perform- ances, and well deserve the Shield.

We extend our hearty congratula- tions to the Captain, Mr. T. T Barm, and his men.
