INTERPORT TEAM SELECTION.

DATES OF SHANGHAI MATCHES FIXED,

INTERESTING PROGRAMME IN LEAGUE TO-MORROW.

K.O.S.B. V. QUEEN'S.

[DY "WANDERER"]

It is hardly realised in local football circles that the Interport content with Shanghai is drawing rapidly near. Trial matches, are being played regularly in mid- week, though I cannot help think- Ing that the selectors have begun at the wrong end in commencing with a very strong Possible team, and continuing with the Leas Like- -lys.

However, no doubt these matters will sort themselves out within a week or two. The team for next Wednesday's match, the opposi- tion to be provided by a combined Army and Navy team, is as fol lows!

Clark; Wynne, Dadshon; C. F. Remedios, Hudson, McBride; Bark- ham (Tamar), Fung King-cheong, Gosano, Suen Kam-shun, and Caldicott,

Reserves: La! Yuk-tat; Hill, Wong Shui-wa, Goldman and Rocha.

The Shanghai Interpart Com- mittee are also busy arranging the details for the visit, and a very strong sido la being got.together according to all accounts.

In

The dates of the matches Hongkong have been fixed, tenta- tively, as follows:

Shanghai v. Hongkong; Feb, 11th.' Shanghai v. Chinese: Feb. 13th. Shanghai v. Services: Feb. 16th.

Before the Interport game, there is one important. representative game to be decided, the final of the International Charity Cup, be- tween England and Portugal.

Mra. Southern has consented to present the Cup at the conclusion of the game, which takes place on the Club ground on Saturday next. The band of the Queen's Regiment will be in attendance.

To come to more immediate mat- tera, the programme for to-morrow has been reduced by the postpone- ment of the fixtures of Chincae Athletic, owing to the death of Mr. Choy Sin-woon, the President of the C.A.A.

A good selection of games is to be found in the Senior Division of the League.

The fixtures, together with grounds, times of kick-off and re- ferees appointed, are as follows:

McKelvic returns to the Kowloon side for Saturday's match against the Recrelo, though the wisdom of playing him at inside-right instead of centre-half is open to question.
