The Somersets beat the Hong- kong Football Club in a League maich at Happy Valley yester- day, the issue being decided made, by both players, and the by Butcher's goal scored dur-very passive policy of the contes. ing the second half. The Club tants, who refused to take any

chances. put up an excellent display and did exceedingly well to hold the fast moving Somerset forwards who showed something of the form they did during the second half of the Shield Final last Saturday.

The first threatening move came from the Somersets when Bishop and McBride were kept busy coping with the thrusts of Butcher and Rayson. Butcher however, was being watched carefully and he often failed to get his centres over. The Club forwards did not show up well, mainly due to the ex- cellence of the Somerset's half back line which was always safe. On the other hand the Somerset for- wards found the Club defence dif- ficult to pierce, and this fact ac- counts for there being a blank score sheet at the interval.

Although the Club made several strong attacks early on in the first half, later in the game they were kept on the defensive, the Somerset forwards

often dashing at great speed down the field. The Club backs held firm, however, and Rodger in goal proved a safe custodian.

The only goal of the match came when Bishop skled the ball towards his own goal. Rodger was hard pressed and made a weak clear. ance. Butcher gathered the ball

before he could recover. After this the Somersets had most of the game and the Club forwards seldom came into the picture. Guest had two opportunities of increasing the Somerset's lead before the game ended but both times put the ball over the bar.

The Junior Matches.

In the Junior Division Chinese Athletic "A" beat South China “A” by three goals to nil. The start was delayed for ten minutes and then South Ching turned out with only nine men. The Athletic had all the advantages, but they were only able to penetrate the South China defence once in the first half, The goal was scored by Leung Tat- wing after a weak clearance by Lo Tam-tai.

Honda is obviously far more at home in safety" game than "S.A," and by adopting the mea. sures he did, the Indian simply played into his opponent's hands. Honda excited admiration for the manner he maintained the changes until he was in position to, execute his cross-court drivė, which he employed with fine effect. His ground and overhead strokes were sounder and more mobile than those of Rumjahn, who, in his anxiety to play to the white line, overhit badly.
