Shades of ten years ago! Those who saw the charity soccer game yesterday at Caroline Hill between a South China team and the Rest of the Colony must have been reminded strongly of football in Hongkong a decade ago. On the field, playing almost no well as they were in the old days, were Lee Wai-tong, Suen Kam-shuen, Leo Kwok-wai, Fung King-cheung, Lee Tin-sang and Leung Wing-chiu-mesubers of the old Chinese brigade.

Ireland

Beaten Easily But China Puts Up A Good Fight With Scots

Though a spurt from the 14th to the 19th heads gave Portugal a comfortable victory over Ireland in the semi-finals of the Gutierrez Shield International bowls tournament on the Kowloon C.C. green yesterday, Scotland was fully extended by China on the Civil Service C.C. green and won by only two shots.

The Irishmen held their own against the Portuguese for the first 13 heads, at the end of which they led 11-0. But thereafter, the Portu- guese, who made two changes from the team which beat India the pre- vious week, scored 1. 1, 3, 4, 1, and n that order to lead 22-11 by the end of the 10th.

Contrary to expectations, China put up a fine fight against Scotland, In spite of a bad start--they conceded six shots in the first three heads- the Chinese led 10-6 after the eighth and at the end of the 11th, they were 13-B ahend. The Scots then had a good spell, a five on the 12th taking them to level terms, and a single, two, three and two put them 21-13 in the lead.

China had a great chance of scor. ing a ve on the 18th head, Lying five when Duncan, the Scottish skip, had only his last wood to go, China

Still, China was not yet finished. A three, two singles and a two got them to within a shot of Scotland's total, and the last head commenced amid grea: excitement with Scotland leading 21-20.

The Scots, however, prevented the Chinese from creating an upset by taking a single on this lost end to finish up winners by 22-20.
