[Bỹ “Wanderer.”1
On Wéditosday in these columns, I ventured an outline of the vari- ous problema confronting local soccer circles, and surveyed, as far as able, the position in which the League as a whole finds itself at the commencement of a nów -
To-day, it is necessary to deal specifically, if briefly, with the prospect of the various clubs. The campaign openg to-morrow, with a programme of oleven mintelies, and new hopes and anticipations will be given their first serious test.
The last three weeks have pass- ed all too quickly for some. Team-building his occasioned a great deal of hard work and one or two clubs are not fully antis- fled with the net result of their labours. In the main, however, it may be aald that optimism pro- vails in most clubs, and that the prospects are extremely satisfac- tory.
The fixtures Jiat, together with grounds, times of kick-off and the referees appointed, is as follows:

The H.K.F.C.
The Colony's oldest club, the Hongkong. Football Club, which opens with a match against South China, viowa the new season with a greater degree of confidence than for many seasons past. The ma- jority of Inst year's first eleven are still available, and, what is more promising, there has been an influx of good material. Mr. A. II. McBride is the new captain, an honour which his great work last season richly earned.
The team selected for the first match of the season will be worth watching. Only Scott, the beat forward of the last campaign, re- tains his place in the attack, B. F. Massey, G. D. Reid, W. E. Peers (all new blood) and A. Trambitsky, of the Reserves, filling the vacan- cies.
I. J. Logan is a goalkeeper new to Hongkong football, but it is ex- pected that George Rodger will re turn from Home leave early in the season to resume his position. H.
