"He is one of our fastest men and very quick with his stick" adds

FOLLOWING the game, the Hongkong eleven was selected as follows:
Pte. Hollingsworth_(Lines), - A..J. Rodrigues (Unly.), J. Rodger (Club) (Capt.), W. A. Reed (Club),
Lt. E. N. Sinclair (Medway), E. V. Reed (Club).
Lt. W. S. Donald (Medway), Lt. J. IL Eaden (Medway), G. Singh (Radio),
K. Singh (Radio),
S. C. Archer (Club),
THE absence of Lal Singh, on the left wing, has robbed Hong- kong of a brilliant forward.
