Defence Carries Team In

Senior Shield Game

South China "A" were given a great fight in their Senior Shield match against the Middlesex on Saturday, and only came through winners because their defence struck some of their finest form this

season.

As it was, if Watson had not made a fatal mistake and sent the bail into his own goal. anything might have happened.

Fung King-cheung was, as usual. a tower of strength and it was he who scored the other goal. to give the Chinese the game by 2-1.

Pearson scored for the Middlesex.

The Junior Shield match between the Royal Navy and Ordnance had to be abandoned after 65 minutes' play, with the score reading 1-1.

No more nerves?

Not since I started with SANATOGEN

Nervousness, fatigue, forgetfulness and many other symptoms often hamper the full enjoy- ment of life. You can become fit and healthy again with a course of Sanatogen. Sanatogen contains just those elements which give new health and energy to the run-down" organisin in a very digestible form. It strength- ens the nerves, renews the red blood cells and thus gives new strength and stamina to the whole system.

Prof Tobold, a well-known European authority, wrote:

*Those who are suffering from nervous weakness will soon, regain their former strength and joy of Uje”

Try Sanatogen at once. Buy it to-day and see how quickly Health and Vitality return.
