SOUTH CHINA BEAT

Chinese Narrowly Miss Scoring On Several Occasions

THOUGH it was only by the narrow margin of 3-2 that South China boat the Police in a First Division soccer match at Boundary Street yoster- day, the number of occasions on which the Chinose only just failed to score bolie the inference that they were hard put to secure their victory.

It was, however, an excellent game-fast and clean. There were, it is true, two penalties that resulted in goals -one for each-but the infringements could safely be put down to over-enthusiasm at critical moments.

HONGKONG AND LINGNAN UNIVERSITIES REVIVE ATHLETIC MEETINGS

REVIVING athletic meetings that were begun some twelve or thirteen years ago, but which have been dis- continued for the past few years, the Hongkong Univer- sity and the Lingnan University, formerly of Canton, meet to-day on the athletic field at Pokfulam.

Rivalry is keen-as keen per-1

haps as that out of which the Shek-O Golf Meets originally arose-and this has been made most apparent in the enthusiastic training that has been in progress over the several weeks despite the heat.

Since the Chinese University moved to Hongkong following hostilities in Canton, their athletic activities (running) have been cur- talled, and their general standard must have suffered. Their track in Canton was one of the finest in South China, as many of the former Hong- kong University athletes will verify, and It was a great blow and loss to: the students to have had to leave

It.

It is because of this that the local undergraduates are favoured to take laurels in this revival meeting.

The programme is one that extends over four days concluding on Thurs day, October 10 (Double Tenth) and principal trophy of the Meeting will be that presented by the Hon. Mr. M. K. Lo for annual competition.
