The final of the Sunday Herald Cup will be played to-day on the Hong Kong F.C. ground and a big crowd is expected.
Seatland are the present holders. China, will be represented by the Athletic team. The game will be full time, extra time being played if necessary.
In the Senior League, Kowloon receive the Recrcio on the Railway ground. With an improved" side, strong in all departments, the home team should extend last season's chaupions and with Northey in his form have their share of the game. Cono will probably' play in the pivotal position for the Recreio. If he does, Northey will not have a very easy time. Gosano played a fine game as centre, hall in the Charity game against the Athletic
last week.
The game on the United Services ground will he fought out between
the defence on both sides.
The Police with their mid-week success #gainst the Queen's in the Shield competition will take the field in confidence of getting the better of the R.A.F. Yernon will be the only
quo likely to worry Clarke in the Police goal.

The junior game between the Athletic and St. Joseph's on the Hong Kong F.C. ground will be good curtain raiser for the Charity Cap final. The Athletic have play ed strong games recently and may give the College team a set back to-day,

FIRST DIVISION MATCH.
(THROUGH REUTEr's agency.]
Londos, Feb. 23rd.
In the First Division of the English League to-day, Blackburn Rovers defeated Middlesbrough by three goals to nil.
The result of the Scottish Cup match between the Rangers and King's Park was wrongly cabled on Saturday, owing to a change of ground. The match was played on the Rangers' ground, and resulted in a win for them by three goals to one, and not vice versa.
and the proceeds will be in aid of the Society of St. Vincent de Paul and certain Chinese charities.
Last Sunday a match was played at the same ground between the Club de Recrein and, the Chinese Athletic Association for the same cause, and the attendance „was rather disappointing.
