FAST

WITH BOTH TEAMS, PLAYING FOOTBALL, yesterday's match between the Salgon Intérport team and the Eastern Athletic Association was undoubtedly the most thrilling of the three matches in which the Saigon visitors took part.

Their defeat by ave goals to one by Eastern can only be attributed to the poor condition of the visiting team after a succes- rough voyage and the strain of having to play three sive matches. However, they were quite up to the occasion and played a scintillating game, only to crumple up in the latter part of the second half under Eastern fastpace.
