In the first ten minutes Polts opened the score for Bruce, after taking the ball from halfway and beating Savage. Serapia combined well, but the Bruce defence held them until Weston drove in an excellent cross-shot for Welch to equalize. Pressure was then main- tained by Bruce, and Joynes put them ahead with a fine shot. Weston got away again for Serapie, but WIN well held by Parr."
Potts and his two inside men then got going away for Bruce, and, from a nice, paus from Potts, Pearson netted a third goal for the ship.

It was therefore decided to play an extra ten minutes, but still the shooting-boots could not well- be found. The teams were matched, but the Stokers' halves were superior to the middle line of the soldiers, who had the advantage for. word.

Hongkong had vastly improved in form, and the forwards outclassed the Marines in the loose, except in the

Hongkong had several drop kicks at goal, while one penalty struck the upright. A minute from half-time, Stokes crossed, and the half-time score was threo points to nil
Immediately after the rosumption, Clark deebed over after a Ane run by Burk. Hongkong then attacked frequently; and several times a score seemed certain, Goldman excelling with dashing runs, Lammert was too closely marked to get going.
