WANTS LOCAL SOCCER TEAM SENT NORTH FOR TRIALS.

OUT OF QUESTION: AN ALTERNATIVE

(By "Veritas").

With the arrival in Hongkong this week of Dr. C. C. Yung, Shanghai sports promoter, China has started her campaign to find teams to re- present her at the World Olympics in Berlin next year. Dr. Yung's visit to the Colony is of special significance.

He is here primarily for the purpose of discussing with the South

Pau Ka- Ping To Play Goal

FOR CHINESE IN CUP MATCH

Preferred To Wong Wing

(By "Voritas").

I have it on the best of authority that Pau Ka- ping will appear in goal for the Chinese Amateur Athletic Federation team against the Football As- sociation in the Governor's Cup on Sunday.

It was generally anticipated that Wong Wing, South China senior's custodian would be given the position, but there is practically no doubt now that Pau will receive preference.

Pau Ka-ping is one of the finest and in the view of many competent observers, the finest goalkeeper in Chinn. His gnificent displays for
