HOCKEY TOUR
N.Z. IN AUSTRALIA
MAY BE ABANDONED
(Received June 9, 11.40 a.m.)
SYDNEY, This Day.
Unless the Australian Hockey Association informs the New Zealand Association that it is in accord with the''altered itinerary as submitted by the New South Wales Association, and New Zealand agrees to the alteration, it appears that the New Zealanders' tour of New South Wales is in danger of being abandoned. The New Zealand Association had previously objected to New South Wales asking for so many matches, and demanded at least two days' rest upon the arrival of the team. New Zealand also asked for a two days' spell before the match against Queensland.
The New South Wales officials have met the New Zealand Association more than half-way, as the first match of the tour against Orange has been abandoned. If New Zealand makes any further objection to' the New South Wales itinerary the New South Wales officials state that delegates will certainly instruct them to withdraw from any further participation in the organisation of the tour.
