Appeal For Sportsmanship

Has Desired Result

A very successful year was reviewed by the Hon. Mr. N. L. Smith, C.M.G., when he presided at the annual general meeting of the Hong Kong Football Association, held in the Board Room of the South China Morning Post Lid.. yesterday.

In the course of his speech the Hon. Mr. Smith said that it was most gratifying that the appeal for sportsmanship made last year has had such satisfactory results. He also congratulated the South China Athletic Association for their enterprise in inviting the Islington Corinthians out here for the visit which has done so much good for football in Hong Kong.
