(By "Wanderer") One Kowloon forward with "initiative and enterprise would have made a world of difference in the Shield tie at Caroline Hill, where South China passed into the semi-final by virtue of two very soft goals.

MR. O. E. WHITE FAVOURS SCHEME BUT DEPLORES METHOD

FORMATION OF BODY WILL RESULT IN INTERPORT MATCHES

THE exclusive announcement in the Telegraph last Friday thhat a movement was on foot to form a central body to control all hockey in Hongkong has aroused tremendous interest.

M

IN most quarters the idea is regarded favourably, and Mr. J. E. Potter, Hon. Secretary of the Hong- kong Hockey Club, the senior club in the Colony, hails the project with enthusiasm claiming that it will have a very good effect on the game and is in many ways necessary.

FR. O. England White, Chairman of the Mamak Tourna- ment committee, whilst agreeing with the scheme, deplores the underhand way in which its promoters have gone about" effecting it.

Mr. J. E. Potier in an Interview regarding the project said: "I think it will have a very good effect upon hockey and is in many ways necessary,

"I don't quite know what scope it will have, but since the Army and Navy are already members of the. English Hockey Association they can tion which we form in Hongkong, but not be full members of any Associa-|

Cassumbhoy applied for 1 postponement, which the com. mittee granted, but lu Tak cheuk insists that the game be played to-day according to original schedule, and the I. R. C, player has consented in spite of his disability.
