The Manito interporters were entertained by the Hongkong Foot- ball Association at a dinner given at the Hotel Cecil last night.

Welcome To The Manila Team," and "May This Vialt Bring Many More To Come."

Music was rendered through the evening by the Filipino band of the stoamer Lanno which brought the Manila team to the Colony.
