Tho vacancy in the Now Zealand Uugby team to visit Australia, as a result of the disqualification of Mitchell by the Otago Rugby Football Union for six weeks, has been filled by the selection of Budd, of South Canterbury. In this connection, it is interesting to note that South Canterbury has not been represented in a team to visit Australia since 1593, ivhcii M'lntosh and Gardiiier, of that district, were included. Budd is a good forward. I General regret will be felt at the news that Cameron, of Taranaki, is unable to make the trip. If in form, Cameron .would most certainly have proved a tower of strength in tho therequarter line. Wilson, of Auckland, who is to take his place, is fast, but not such a finished player.

Wednesday aftornoon was anything but favourable to tho Manairatii Hockey. Association's championship matches, rain making the ground very slippery, and consequently the standard ot play was not high. Old Bovs triumphed over Fitzherbort by seven goals to nil. Tho country players are mostly now to the game, and showed little combination. The Phoenix v. 1 almorstoii match was a much better game, and there were times when it beoaine exciting. Tho former team eventually won by four goals to two, I osi Offico had a runaway game with J eohliicnl School, winning by nine goals to nil. Foildins defeated Palmorstou -« wvam by three goals to one, after a fair ly keen game. The junior match, Technical School II v. Hisrh School, was won by tho /armor team 7>y three goals to one. Neither of the Indies' matches was played. Old Girls A failed to get a tram. H. K h Schools' A and B teams wcro on the ground, but thorn was no referee, and consequently they could not play. Our Carterton correspondent telogranha that, yesterday aftornoon, Cartertou B were defeated by St. Matthews A by throe goals to two.
