NAPIER MATCHES
The main, attraction of to-morrow's football in Napier will undoubtedly be on o. 1 gr.ound, at McLean Park, when the Hastings M.A.C. team will meet T.C.O.B. The progress of the Hawke's Bay Rugby Union's senior competition this season shows M.B.O.B. and these two teams to be in the final, and to-morrow's game should have a bearing on the ultimate result. Many Eugby supporters will no doubt remember the slashing displays of the M.A.C, team on McLean Park last season, and with a repetition of this type of play to-morrow, Rugby will he seerr at its best. On the other hand the T.C.O.B. team have always proved difficult to beat and play as- a-team rather than as individuals, and this factor should be the turning point of the match. On No. 2 gi-ound Pirates meet H.S, O.B. and this game also should be a very open one althougjh not up to the standard of the game on No. 1 ground. The early match on No. 1 ground between M.B.0.B. and T.O.O.B. juniors will add to the spectators witnessing a first-olass afternoon of football.
