DESULTORY JUNIOR GAME
PARAPARAUMU BEAT OTAKI The junior match at Otaki ! Between''" Paraparamnu A andOtaki, which the former won by 12 j points to nil, was not interesting. j In the first plqce Gtak'i was unable i to muster a full team ahd pl£\ye.dj short, while Raraparaumu's display] was not up to " expectatious. They: certainly wo.n, btut the scpre should have been considerably piore. In! two in&tances, both within tl\e space of a few minutes, they reached the line, but Lacked fihisii and failed to touch down. The tries scored were the result of good play. Two came in thp first sp.ell, bpth being unconverted, while in the second half a further six points were notched from an unconverted try and a penalty kick. Otairi was not only weaki humeribally, but also in various de- j partments of the game. Several playerers lacked dash and -failed to ma.ke use of o.pportiihities, while there was little combination. ' Mr. Hughes was the referee.
