SOCCER REFEREES SEEK INCREASE IN FEES

A number of suggestions for submission to the annual meeting of the Hongkong Football Association were adopted at the final monthly meeting of the HÔNGKONG FOOTBALL REFEREES' AS- SOCIATION held at Hotel Cecli last night.

Among the suggestions were an" all-round increase in fees; that fees or medals be given för all'eharity matches; travelling expenses of officials for all matches to be paid; that, as the Army and Navy have no local handbook, rules for the Kotewall Cup be included in the H. K, F. A handbook.
