FOOTBALL THRILLS

TO-DAY

Governor's Cup Encounter

(BY PIVOT)

The chief attraction this week-end às regards football will undoubtedly be the clash between the Assoolation team and the C.A.A. Federation e'even en the Caroline Hill Ground to-day in the Governor's Cup match,

SAING

Many will remember the unpleasantness of the last en- counter when ungentlemanly conduct on the part of the play- ers concerned almost ended the game In a near riot. To- teams two morrow we will be watching practically the and incidentally "the same referee at work and it behove na to remind them, one and all, that a repetition of the last incident will not in the least help to solve the problems of fair p'ay. which is so much needed at the present moment for the good running of the Association and the welfare of football in barti- colar.

The Association are flelding one of the strongest eleven pos- able. Rowlands in goal is being ably supported by Swain and Wolverson at bucks, two sure footed kickers and tacklers. The Intermed'ate Fne is strong and Beltrao in the centre half berth should be able to keep a sharp look-out for the Chinese inside trio.

INTERPORTERS

"In the forward line they have four of the Ave Interporters and this alone ought to be a great help: Rose of the Navy As the Inside right berth and with a pro- per understanding established this forward line will take a lot to stop.

The Athletic. ever since" Chu Ah Fal and "Darky" Chen have dropped from their line up have rot been playing the same type of football as of yore. They have the team in the making, but the in- clination of too much tip tap foot- balt robs the attack of all abing. Provided this obstacle is overcome to-morrow they will leave the railway ground minus another two points, as on present form the guardians of the law are, I believe, in tip top form.

Mr. Railton has been playing football on and off for the last thirty years. He has been staunch supporter of the Hong Kong Football Club and or en Comeal of the Association during his team of office had rendered in- valuable aid to one and all in their football worries......
