The last time the R.A.S. took part in local league soccer was in 1930. Since then they lalo pang ed to build up an unusually strong combination and their defent South China by the score of 5-1, even allowing for the fact that the Chinese were nowhere near full strength, gave a very fair indication of the team's possibilities.

Eager, thrustful and pene- trating forwards played a prominent' part in the Artil- lery's win yesterday, and as it was in this department that they have previously. displayed a real weakness, it is apparent that they can now boast a well-balanced side capable of doing almost anything.
