were

A surprisingly large crowd of hardy softball enthusiasts turned ent at the Kowloon Football Club ground last Sunday morning and" well rewarded when the Canadian Chinese Club and the English Forum stiged an exciting battle that ended in favour of the latter by the narrow margin of three tallies to two. The knowledge that keen rivalry, existed between these two Chinese clubs was of course responsible for the good attendance.

"Sure, I outpointed him," 'he gays, as he recalled his ring career, But I knew before I went into the ring that the only way I could win was to knock him out. I thought had him, too, once or twice, but he was ton tall. I used a crouch and by the time my blows reached his face they had lost steam.”
