Semi-Final Matches At Country Club

SEMI-FINAL, MATCHES in both the Captain's Gun and the Men's

AFTER HOLDING THEIR OWN magnificently during the first period of their match against Eastorn in their Senior Shield encounter at Sookunpoo yesterday, the Combined Royal Artillery allowed their defence to be pene- trated three times in the course of the second half, and although beaten, they were not disgraced, for it was only that they were unable to settle downry Golf Club yesterday, and resulted as a team that they owed their defeat of three goals.

First Division

Eastern were no doubt the better team on the day's League Soccer Tables play, and it took all the ingenuity of their forwards to obtain the goals. While they played well as a combina tion, the disjointed actions of the Artillery made the task of their defence much more easier than their opponents. S. China The Artillerymen had quite a few chances at goal, but poor shooting did not help matters.
