REST DEFEAT SERVICES IN THRILLING Cheung Wing-choi Saves In Fine RUNAWAY WIN Manner: Hossack Is Outstanding: HOCKEY GIRLS Lee Wai-tong Scores Two Goals

OVER $2,000 RAISED FOR B.W.O.F.

IN A GAME PACKED WITH THRILLS, SPILLS AND GOOD SHOOTING, the Rest of the Colony defeated the Combined Services in yesterday's annual Poppy Day charity soccer match in aid of the British War Organisation Fund by the odd goal in five,

A feature of the play was that all the goals were scored in the second half, and to within six minutes of the end the score was equal. Excitement ran to a high pitch throughout the game, and both sides playing really excellent football, held a crowd of well over 5,000 enthrall- ed. The gate is estimated to have yielded approximately $2,400.

good hard clean shot to score the equaliser.
