CHINESE REPRESENTATION

To return to a point carlier touched upon, it is possible that exception will be taken to the statement that the Chinese clubs are not represented on the Council and the antes of Mr. 11, K. Lee and Mr. Wong Ka-tsun may be cited as an obvious refutution. I am not so sure that it is. A fow days before the annual meeting of the II.K.F.A. Chinese soccer leaders held a meeting to nominate candidates for the Council, or so I am given to understand, and two names were agreed upon.) Neither of the Chinese gentlemen actually elected to Council was included. The other names were submitted by the Chinese at Fri- day's meeting but both gentlemen, Mr. Mok Iling and Mr. Y. K. Mok, failed to securo election. I have good reason to belleve that as a rosult there is considerable dis- satisfaction in Chineso soccer circles.

At the end of the II.K.F.A, an- nual report for 1931-32 it is stated: "The Council are plena- ed to report that the unfortunate
