EXTRAORDINARY MATCH FOR GOVERNOR'S CUP

REST BEAT CHINESE: PLAYER GIVEN MARCHING ORDERS

(By "Veritas").

Frayed tempers, resulting in an abnormal number of fouls as well as an excessive use of the whistle prevented the orderly progress of the Governor's Cup match yesterday on the Club ground, but this could not rob the game of its colourful exchanges and exciting incidents.

The Rest beat the Combined Chinese (in this case the complete Chinese Athletic team) by the odd goal in seven in the aral leg of the re organised competition.
