CAT AND MOUSE GAME IN LAI WAH CUP FINAL YESTERDAY

(By "Veritas")

THE least said or written about the Lal Cup final played yesterday between the Chinese and Civilians, the better. SUFFICE to add that it was about the worst game ever seen in this competition, for that matter, any other local tournament, and that the Chinese won by only six goals to one (I say "only" advisedly) was their funeral entirely.

Probably less than a dozen people seriously expected to AC tho

ROUND BY ROUND DESCRIPTION

OF A SPLENDID FIGHT

Ex-Stoker Reynolds, well remembered Hongkong boxer, unsuccessfully challenged Jack Hood for the welter-weight title of Great Britain at Birmingham last month.

The erstwhile navy man took the count in the ninth round for the first time in his career, but he put up a creditable display as the following special round by round account of the fight, desrribed by a special" correspondent of the Portsmouth Evening News, clearly shows.
