For Greater Control Over Touring Teams

Local Success Abroad

(By "Tinker")

AMONG SEVERAL proposed alterations to the Rules of the Hongkong Football Association which the F.A. Council have put forward for con- sideration at the Annual General Meeting, on Wednesday, next, are two which not only afford the F.A. greator control over future touring teams, but which, arising out of a spate just after Eastern's tour of Manila, should mean much to harmony in Hongkong.

A third proposal is one which,

I believe, is modelled on ព

similar rule in the F.A, con- Highlights

These are:
