local football and quite Indispensable to the Colony team. His clever manoeuvres with Fung King-cheung and Tam Kong-pak, the amazingly accurate passes which he flung out to

display the wings, and his topping shooting made him the outstanding player of the match.

Cheong Moon-wing at outside left did not fully realise expectations. He

was rather servous which showed it- self in his hurried kicking. Oft times he might have made valuable ground, but he banged the ball into the middle straight away before his colleagues able to run into position.

Irwin was fright- fully neglected, due largely to Ernest Strange, who fell into half back play and was not up with the attack.

As a team the Chinese were better, though until halfway through the second half they enjoyed on equal share of the exchanges.

But the forwards could not execute the same clear-cut movements which featured the operations of the Chinese, neither did they boast the same spon- taneous, but accurate, shooting,

WON ON THEIR MERITS

The Chinese won on their merits, though it must be confessed they owed much to Lee Wal-tong und Lec Tin-sang. The Association opened the scoring when North took a free kick and sent in lovely shot which Tam Kwong-on completely mis- vulged.

Within three minutes the Federa- tion were on level terms, Lee Wol- tong dashing through in great style and beating Rowlands with the finest shot of the match. So the teams stood at half time.

Especial interest will be invested the men's doubles event, in which is gathered the cream of local badminton. Oliveira and Remedios will be named favourites, but they will face strong opposition in T. C. Lee and P. K. Hui, as well as some of the Chinese Y.M.C.A. couples, and H. Kew and E. F.

P. K. Hul and Miss Khoo appear to be fairly safe to win the mixed doubles, though they have to face Oliveira and Miss M., Silva, while it must be admitted that L. A. Car- valho and Miss C. Silva constitute a real threat.
