Interviews With Captain And Manager Of H.K. Team

"If we travel to Manila again, we must be certain to take at least 19 players and to have three days' practice under the conditions prevail- ing in the Philippines," stated Lee Wai-tong, the Hongkong Interport soccer captain, when inter- viewed on board the Changte this morning on the return of the team.

Sheehan Shines At Centre-Half

"There is no doubt that the light- inst was poor in comparison to other cities which play under these condi- tions and the lung grass considerably affected the play of the Colony team in the first match. Visibility was not very good and both the referee and linesmen had much difficulty in maintaining very strict control of the game.
