Boldklubben Frem, of Denmark, and two Japanese selections took part and the matches were played on the ‘round robin' system.　St. George-Budapest　won the Cup, but the　results ofthe Japanese “A” side were disappointing. They lost to the Danish team by one goal to nil and could only hold St. George-Buda-pest to a goalless draw.

　Too Heavy a Schedule
　The Japanese Football Association finally decided not to send its team to the Korean President's Gup tournament to be held in Seoul, next May, The Korean Association strongly　requested　that　the　decision　be reconsidered, but the Japanese officials said that it would be impossible, owing to thedomestic league schedule.

　CHINA−What shall be done?
　The first Chinese sports delegation to visit Japan from the Chinese mainland since 1966 appeared in Nagoya, a city in central Japan, on the occasion of the 31st World Table Tennis Championship from March 28th until April 7th. This means that the People's Republic of China has the intention of　restarting its International　sports　activities, which were ceased during the period of the“Great Cultural Revolution” between 1968 and 1969. The Chinese participation in the table tennis championship has had influence Japanese sports circles,　where　many sportsmen are anxious to have friendly relations with the Chinese in a multitude of sports. They found their chance in the case of table tennis
　However, in the case of football, the path will not be so smooth as in table tennis. The Chinese　Table Tennis　Federation has full membership of I.T.T.F. (International Table Tennis Federation), whereas the Football　Federation of　the　People’s Republicof China withdrew as a member of FIFA in 1958. Under FIFA regulations no member association can have relations　in football with a non-affiliated body.
　The　reason　why the People’s　Republic withdrew from FIFA was because Taiwan had been recognised by FIFA. The People’s Republic of China claims that only　one organisation　should　represent　football　in China and that the People's organisation is the true representative of Chinese football.
　On the other hand， the Football Association in Taiwan also claims to represent the whole of China and it is still a member of FIFA. Therefore, the problem is a matter of　choice　between　the　two　Chinas as to which really represents football　in China. The answer is, l believe, clear. The People’s organisation has been promoting football for about twenty years in most parts of China and football has been one of the most popular sports on the mainland.
　Also it should be noted that Taiwan is a part of China as　a whole. Neither organisation insists on　the　independence of thefootballers in Taiwan, and now the footballers of　a country, which has　one third of the earth’s population are neglected by the International Federation. It is an unhappy situation for the most popular sport in the world and something must be done about it.
