Both teams are at present playing as well as may be expecta ech Police will have the ad- vantage of weight over the nippy Chinese, but wil weight be able to overcome speed? The Police defence is one of the strongest in local' soccer, and as South China. know exactly what they will be up against, they will no doubt go about their work very systemati- cally.

Navy should account for Kow- 1· 1oo. They have a team that is capable of holding the best when called upon, a strong Intermediate line being their chief claim Kow- loon on the other hand is not so impressive as of old. The Navy will be playing another game to- morrow against the Athletic, and
unless the Chinese can call on their Canton players, they will have a tough time in overcoming the Navy lada,
Lincolns should give St. Joseph's a good run for the points. Their stamina and staying power will St. perhaps tell in this game. Joseph's is quite capable of turn- ing the tables on the soldiers provided their forwards can get omg but they will be up against very strong Army defenie Une.
