SHANGHAI FOOTBALL.

REFERENCES TO LAST YEAR'S INTERPORT.

The annual report of the Shang- hal Football Asscelation states that asacciation football still re- mains the premier winter sport in H+ Shanghai, and while the increase in the number of foreign teams is very noticeable, the increased en- thusiasm shown by the Chinese is nothing less remarkable. It is also remarked that the attehdanev at matches on the Racecourse often numbers two thousand, whilst "at" the Interport and Cup matches played on the Pioneer field four to five thousand witness the games.

The Association and the League are, more or less, interdependent, „ and co-operation is more than de sirable. That there has been a cer-Hirminigam tain lick of collusion in the past is well-known, and a typical instance ! of this was shown at. last Friday's meeting when a request that the League fixtures should be completed by January 1st. was taken much too seriously in spite of the obvious fact that the request was one with which it was impossible to coniply, Owing to the unfortunate death of Inspector Dorrington, Mr. Hol-Hull City was

Jands was able to attend the meeting to clear the matter up, and the confusion in the ranks grew such an extent that one secretary asked if it was intended that teams In the First Division should meet each other only once.

Dealing with Interport football, the report says:

"The annual match for the Hongkong Telegraph Interport Cup took place during the China New ive team from Hongkong" visited Year holidays when a representa- this port, and the occasion was made more interesting by the South China" team consisting of Chinese players visiting Shanghai at the same time in response to an invitation 'extended by the local Chinese Federation, and a very in- teresting aeries of games resulted. "The Hongkong team arrived in Shanghai on the morning of Friday.. 12th February and the first match, the actual Interport match, was played on the following day at the Pioneer Field before. A crowd of: about four thousand who had the matisfaction of witnessing a hard, and although com- robust game bination was lacking throughout, the individual play warupectacular, Jhanghai' fielded a stronk team captained by Mr. A.

The third and final match in which the' o Hongkong team participated was 0 against a mixed Shanghai team of Chinese and Foreign players, Hong- kong again winning by five to one score, and it was in this match that the Hongkong team, was seen at its best.

NETHERLANDS TENNIS CLUB VISITS MACAO.

N.T.C. of Hongkong visited Macao, On Saturday and Sunday last tho' to meet the team of the Foreign Lawn Tennis Club.

The Dutch players were beaton by a narrow margin of one point, the result being 50 games to 49 in favour of the hosts.

The Netherlands team consisted of the following players: Messrs. Buys and Bamondt, Woudenbarg and Heintzen, Knottnere and de Voer.

"Mention must be made of the two Managers who accompanied the Hongkong team on their visit, Messrs. Hollands and McGubbin these two gentlemen were of every possible, assistance to the Aasöcía- tion on all matters in connection with the Interport matches.",

As to finances, it is remarked that the Association, in carrying forward a balance of over four thousand dollars can. at last be considered to be on a sound finan cial footing and it should now be possible for it to carry on without having to depend to a certain extent on the generosity of ita supporters..
