Playing the Royal Army Medical Corps in a Second Division match at the Race Course yesterday afternoon, the French Forces, recently involved in a "free-for-all" fight with Savoia in the final of the Tsz Ling Cup, hung up the season's highest goal-making record when they accumulated a total of 18 goals against the opponents' two.
More astonishing, however, was the performance of Metals, the stocky centre-forward who had a field day by countering no less than a dozen times. In local football annals, no player had converted as many as 12 goals in ninety minutes of play. The feat was hardly believable considering there were 22 men in the game.
The goals were evenly divided, both halves ending with 8-1. In the first period Metals scored four but upon the resumption he netted the whole eight for his team.
FRENCH FORCES:—Peguy,—Ge Arnaud, Pons De Mail, Arzal, Leborgne, Henrich, Metals, Clu Fac, and Lebras.
RAMC.:—Wilkes, Plumb, Higginpetiom, Quedan, Royal Wavie, Sedie jaraidé, Robinson, Clarke, and Lewis.
