CHINESE REPRESENTATION
To return to a point earlier |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 names of Mr. II, K. Lee and Mr. Wong Ka-tsun may be cited as an obvious refutation. I am not so sure that it is. A few days before the annual meeting of the 1.K.F.A. Chinese Soccer leaders held a meeting to naminate; candidates for the Council, ог 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 Hing and Mr. Y. K. Mok, failed to secure election. I have good reason to believe that as result there is considerable dia- satisfaction in Chinesa Boccer circles.
