Butcher's Chance At Last

(Special Air Mail Service)

London, Oct. 3. Butcher, who made such a cred!- table debui in the Aston Villa team which triumphed at Tottenham, | has waited for three seasons for his chance to make good. He joined the Villa in May, 1931, from Wombwell, and has figured chiefy | in the Central League side, where his displays have stamped him na a sound defender. His exhibition at Tottenham left the impression that the Villa have in him a back who cannot be left out of the team in future.

Spectators at the Hong Kong Polo Club yesterday wit nessed what was, perhaps, one of the most exciting matches that has ever been seen on the Causeway Bay Ground. It was a fitting climax to the Tournament season on this ground as next year the Club will shift its location to a"? larger ground at Kowloon.

The occasion was the final of the KOYLI" Cup be- tween the Royal Artillery, and the Civilians. It was a no- handicap game. The Civilians had always been favourites for the Cup, but the Gunners, whose early appearances were unimpressive, put themselves into the picture and the final by unexpectedly defeating the South Wales Bor- derers by 6 goals to 3, last week.
