A Display of Bad Taste,
"Centre-Half" lias received a letter from a correspondent, who signs himself "Don Quixote," in which the writer severely condemns the action of a member of the Referees' Association in publicly criticising the work of another referee at the Brown Shield match on Saturday last. "Don Quixote" states that this gentleman stood on the line and made frequent references of a slighting character, to the decisions of Mr. Davidson, who was controlling the WellingtonWangn.nni match at Newtown Park. The "Don" concludes his letter with the remark that "it is a long while since I last saw such a display of bad taste."
Yes; it is rather a pity the thing occurred. If what "Don Quixote" says is correct, then tiie present discord in the controlling bodies would seem to he the work of tittle-tattlers—a nice bright cheerful outlook for the game!
