SLIGHT ADVANTAGE

WEEK-END MATCHES

A three clear goal victory over St. Joseph's yester- day placed South China “A” on a level point footing with that club's "B" team but with a`game in hand. South China "A" have yet to lose a point while the "B" team have two draws chalked up against them in their analysis. The Borderers, despite the fact that they lost the services of two of their players through injury, during their game with the Police, forced a draw.

The Lincolns and the R. A. are still struggling for upremacy in the Second Division, each holding an un- beaten record to-date. During the week-end both teams recorded wins against Kowloon and the

Club respectively.

The Royal Navy, by defeating the Club de Recreio by four goals to two on Saturday, won their first match of the season in the Senior Division.
