"It is unnecessary for me. to assure you to remind the Govern- ment of their duty to the nation in the matter of defence," said. Mr. Neville Chamberlain, Chancellor of the Exchequer, at the National Conservative conference at Bourne mouth in response to a combined

resolution by Sir Edward Grigg and Mr. Winston Churchill urging the fullest building up of national defences regardless of the expense which was carried unanimously.

Mr. Chamberlain said: "All things mentioned in the resolution had already been undertaken by the

FRIENDLY SOCCER

St. Joseph's Beaten

In a friendly football game played at the Navy ground Cause- Way Bay yesterday, St. Joseph's College lost to the Canton Chinese Federation by the only goal scored by Yeung Sui Yik in the first half after a clever combined movement

by the Chinese cm the right.

The game was very keenly and evenly contested throughout and the low score reflects very highly on the standard of play.

The Chinese was well served by first-time their defence, their clearances being a feature of the game. Their forwards were not in a. happy mood and missed many chances of increasing their lead.

The Collegians

on the other hand were quick on their feet and if their consistency had been kept throughout they might well have shared the spoila.

Souza in goal brought off several spectacular saves especially in the #cond half while the forwards and defence were also in the lime- Ight.

On the whole a draw would have been a fair reflection on the play.

MAINLAND DISPUTE

Peak Firm; (But! Kowloon Says

“(BY NO Quarter),

VICTORIA:THURSDAY

No)

Several unfortunate Incidents on the Hong Kong-Kowloon Frontier have given rise to feeling of tension. On Saturday last, a fracas was reported after a Hong Kong bacon cutter had spat into the beer of a Kowloon Tripe-founder, and it is the grounds of this that Kowloon claim reparations. A Hong Kong shrotr was thrown downstairs when presenting his bill at a Kowloon residence, but this is so much an every day matter that it is not viewed with much concern, or as having any par- ticular political signicance. Far more serious is the action of a Kowloon bowler, who, when playing against a Hong Kong club, deliberately substituted a small white rubber ball In- stead of the normal wood. "It is a grave insult to Island Bowls." said a reputable commentator yesterday.

WILL KOWLOON BOWLERS LEAVE THE LEAGUE?

KOWLOON: LATER

Kowloon bowling circles are seething with. discontent at the allegedly arrogant attitude of the Island woodsters. Sev- eral of the more extreme bowlers counciled immediate seces- alon from the League as a protest against such treatment of a harmless joke. Mr. Jack Toucher, Strong Man of the powerful "Brothers of the Blas" society stated:-"No amount of intimi dation is going to prevent Kowloon woods from rolling on- wards to their destiny,"
