(By "Veritas").

WITHIN four hours of landing in Hong- kong, the Shanghai Interport football team experienced their first bit of bad joss when yesterday, afternoon, whilst practising with his colleagues, Bossuet, Shanghai's inside left, strained his left leg. It is very doubtful whether he will be fit for Thursday, but no decision will be reached until the morning of the match.

This necessitates Immediate South African representation OTI the English Union. At present the position on the Union is vacant. There are a number of eligible candidates in England at present and even Mr. Charlea Water, Union High Commissioner, has interested himself in the matter, while Mr. H. W. Taylor, the well-known Springbok
