CANTERBURY RUGBY UNION. .On Saturday the final of the Senior Championship may be' reachcd at tho .Show Urounds. At the present time the competition is at a vfery interesting stage, ae Merivalo and Old Boys are leading with equal points, while Linwood is only one point behind. Therefore tho result of the competition depends on the game between Linwood and Merivale, and Christchurch and Old Boys. Should Linwood beat Merivale and Old Boys beat Christchurch, Old Boys will thus obtain the championship On the other hand if Linwood beat Merivale and Chrietchurch beat Old Boys, this will make Linwood, Old Boys, and Merivale equal. The Christchurch-Old Boye' match should be very interesting, as the former club are putting a very strong team in tho field. The Linwood-Merivale gama should also be well worth peeing, ae when these teams met earlier in the season, Linwood won by 11 points to 6, and therefore Saturday's contest should be very even. Both matches will commence art 2.45 pun.
