CRITICS' COMMENTS
Interport XI As Strong As Could Be Chosen
SHANGHAI, Jan. 30 (UP).—The majority of critics approve the interport team, which is as strong as could be chosen, although there is argument regarding George Collet gaining the full back post instead of Sgt. Campbell, who played grand football throughout the season but was badly off-colour during Sunday's trial.
