I was asking last week for a fair chance to be given to the re- ferees during matches. Let me repezi a statement which appears in the Athletic News very recent- ly, and which is written by C.S. Sutcliffe, one of the best referees at present in the Old Country. He writes as follows" Seme time ago I referred to referees who were on trial, and who were South China 10 2 6 2 11 66 being watched by members of Police

That is all bosh; the referee will have no better friend than the members of the committee who watch him. The League know perfectly well that he is almost bound to make mistakes, but it the number but is

far lighter and amalier set of men, and I hope that in the few more matches Kawloon have to play they will be sportsmen and find men who will at least play the game of football. It will assist them to keep up their re- putation as a sporting team by so doing. I had just had about enough, and as I had a match to referce myself, I left the ground.

The Navy match against South China I could not witness, as I was on the go myself. I feel that I must give a few words of prais: to St. Joseph's College for the

put up against the R.G.A. Considering that they were practically on the losing side after the first fex minutes of the game, and consider- ing, the great difference in the build and stamina of the twu teams, I think that they were very unlucky to lose by two goals to nil. They had. plenty of chances in the second balf to at least equalise, but each time the centre-forward got on the move and the pass away and back again, and evon got past the two backs, he failed miserably in front of the goal.
