Soccer Farce Against The
Foreign Team

Rowlands Takes A Penalty
Kick!
Another disappointing game of football was witnessed at the Caroline Hill stadium yesterday when the East China eleven put up their worst display in this Colony against a Hong Kong foreign aide which did almost as it liked. Except for a somewhat lucky break through the local defence occasionally, at no time was any of the visiting players in form. This explained the large number of goals scored against them by the Hong Kong side.

HARLEQUINS BEAT THE

Cambridge at the beginning of the season gave the first in- dication of their quality by the manner in which they beat the Harlequins at Twickenham, and for the return match they paid them the compliment of fleiding by far the strongest side that has represented them this term. writes a Home correspondent,

POLICE DEFEAT
SEAFORTHS
United Hockey Tourney
At the Sookunpoo ground yester. day, the European Police defeated the Seaforth Highlanders by three goals to nil in their United Hockey Tournament Axture.
Montana's most powerful punch was a right cross to the jaw, after he had drawn Lynch's left lead but, as with a good many of his other blows, there was more than a suggestion of the open glove about it at times, and Lynch mère- ly played the part of he who gets slapped."
From the ninth to the twelfth the terrific pace slackened out somewhat, with both men depend- ing more on long-distance boxing and matching lefts--Lynch hook- ing and Montana jabbing.

Fearless Saving
As usual it was the Harlequin forwards who tipped the scale in their favour by their ability to get the ball regularly in the scrums, by their fearless saving, their re- lentless tackling, and, above all, by their ability to use their hands as well as their feet.
Butler's great pace gave him a advantage over Mic- decided donald, both in attack
and de- fence. In contrast to Kemble Bruce-Lockhart wisely contented himself with acting as a link and handing over the responsibility of making openings to his centres, Forest and Roden. They certainly justined his confidence,
