While the Railway (Wanganui) and Hunterville team's were playing 'for the Junior Cup on Saturday, 1 some rather rough play was indulged in when the play got to close quarters, the result being that the Railway team walked off the field. The referee awarded the match to Hunterville, but gave the Railway team power to appeal io the Wanganui Union. The Wanganui Union having disqualified certain Marton men for playing for a team not belonging to the Union, the Marton. team has decided to withdraw from tho Union altogether.
