LESSONS FROM CHARITY MATCH.

Looking back over a number of years as a football scribe, having Acquaintance with both amateura and professionals, I cannot recall any match which gave me more pleasure than the internationa between England and China in the Charity Cup Competition Tuesday.

It was A memorable match. One saw, as one rarely sees, just how good some of our local players can be when their very best is brought out. For an hour at least, there was not a dull moment, a momentary lapse during a pass- ing movement being more than. compensated for by the many flashes of individual brilliance. Even afterwards, when England was somewhat disorganised by in- juries, and had conceded the one

Appearing for the prosecution, Mr. M. M ̧Watson said that the complaint was in respect of the false trade marks and descriptions, falsely resembled the United States export labels from Manila, as to bo calculated to deceive buyers into believing that the goods were the products of the El Oriente Fabrica de Tabaccos of Manila. However, an undertaking had been given by the defendants to surren der ond destroy all such marks and Inbels, to pay the costs of the pro- secution, and to publish an apo logy, for one month, in the verna-. cular papers. Under these candi. tions, it was proposed with his Worship's approval, to withdraw the summons.

When the defendants' premises at No. 122, Wellington Street were searched, it was found that there were more than 3,000 cigars to which these faise trade marks and descriptions had been applied. Mr. Watson stated that even the United States export labels from Manila had been copied.

Is Worship asked if it was al- leged that the defendants de liberately used such misrepre- sentations of Government labels.

Mr. Watson replied that they were not taking action on this point beyond the general prosecu-, tion for the mis-use of the com- plainants trade mark rights, but he hoped that the publication of the Court proceedings would have the effect of deterring two or three other similar offendera..

On the defendants' agreeing to enter into all the undertakings re-. quired by the complainants, his Worship consented to withdraw the summons.

"Are you making any other ap- plication in respect of the cigare?". his Worship asked.

Mr. Watson: "We don't want the cigars. They are nothing like

ours."
