AUCKLAND v. HAWKE’S BAY LADIES. Press Association. NAPIER, September 11. The ladies’ representative hockey match, Aucickuiu v. Hawke's Bay, was played on the Recreation Ground fins afternoon, in the presence of a good attendance of spectators... Slight ram fell once or twice during the afternoon, but there were no really heavy showers until the match was finished. Aliss C. Niven,: captain of the Hawke’s Bay team, was suffering from influenza, but placidly kept her place. file game was a very fast one throughout, and the ploy was of an interesting diameter. The two teams were very evenly matched, though the Hawke's Bay forward line played with lather more combination than the visitors. The first spell ended without score, but about half way through tho second spell a passing rush by tlio Hawke’s Bay forwards enabled Aliss Finnis to score the only goal of the match. For the visitors Miss C. Alar,is Clark (captain) i>layeid the best gam e on tho field, Misses Q. Afaris Clark, E. Alison, H'. Ragle- Debbie, and AYvnyard also playing a good game. For the local team Misses G. Morrison, Al.' -Morrison, Hollis, AL. Niven, and Danvers played particfivkinly well. Prior to the representative match a match was played between the. Te Kooti Li lilies’ Hockey Club (Hastings) and a Wanganui ladies’ team, the Te Ivooti team winning by 2 goals to nil. Tim- game was only a fair exposition of, hookey.
