With a better understanding in their forward line they may upset many calculations, ane strange-Bickford combinaë ilon on the left Bank, la a hard working pair and invariably the dinger comes from them.
Farrow seems to have at last found his form in the pivota! position and perhaps with the inclusion of Robertson this week they may be able to offer stlier opposition to the senior shield holders.
S. China "B" did well in beating the Lincolns in their shield replay. Their line up this wee looks very tormidable.

The Police are playing the Navy | on the Kowloon ground. The Po- licemen are always feeling "at home when playing on the rail- way ground and this should be a slight advantage to them. Their line up is about the same as in the previous match. The Navy boys are quite an unknown lot and are capable of dishing up some- thing put of the ordinary in the way of football.

South China will be turning out practically the same team this week with the return of Tay Quại Liang. I understand from good authority that the Athletics will be strengthened by several new players from the Aviation Corps of Canton this week end, in which case the play will turn out to be more interesting and perhaps, one may hope to see the dethronement of South China "A" for the first time.
