H.K.F.A. goalkeeper trotted 100 yards up the field to place the ball on the penalty spot and then to fire in a perfect shot which had his opposite number beaten all the way, yesterday's football match at Caroline Hill between the Hongkong F.A., and East China reached its peak as an entertainment.

China were nowhere in same class as the Colony team, and were outplayed from the start. Four goals were piled on in the first half, and two added in the second.

East China badly missed Li Ning, in defence, though I doubt whether even his presence would have made all that difference, for he could not be expected to shoulder the burdens of ten other players.

This picture was taken just as Dave Leonard, H.K.F.A. centre-forward scored his goal against East China yesterday afternoon, by heading part Chang, the goalkeeper. (Photo by staff photographer),

The Cambridge Rowing Eight continue to do very interesting things. their latest achievement being to take corners on the Cam on their own, without the inter- ference of the coxswain, who will. however, doubtless return to his full privileges on the tortuous Journey from Putney to Mortlake. Furthermore, I read day after day "The two spare men followed the crow down to Claythithe on bi- cycles." At Oxford they generally Bride in a launch, the gift of a muni- aneent magnate.

It is the system which is wrong, not die referees.. Fortune goes by favour, it is sald, and there is no truer remark in the whole game.
