TO-MORROW'S RUGBY

M.A.C. to Play Hastings O.B. at Nelson Park SENIOR GAME- AT HAVELOCK Another bright programme of matehes has "been arranged for to-morrow in Hastings, and with two senior matches set down for play -patrons should be assured of a good afternoon's entertainment. Undoubtedly the star game will be on No. 1 ground at Nelson Park, beginning at 2.45, when M.A.O. meet Hastings H.S.O.B.y and this should prove to be a fast, open gonje. The Maoris aTe playing hriUiant Rugby and are not taking any chances with the other teams, "but they will have to be at the top of their form to-morrow when they take the field with Ol'd Boys-, as this team is improving Tapidly and will be keen to lower the colours of thc Maoris. On No. 2 ground at ?.45 Celtie and Technical 0]d Boys clash, and this should see two evently-matched teams in action. The Celtie team have been inconsisfcent this year, but to-morrow may turn on another of their good displays. The ex-Collegians this season have been unlucky, as all their defeats have been by potted goals. As both teams play attractive football, an interesting eneOunter should be witnessed. Por the early arrivals on No. 1 ground there will be a junior game between Celtie and Haumoana and a third-grade gaine on No. 2 between Celtie and Havelock. At Havelock North there will be a mateh between. the Hastings and Havelock seniors. There should be a good attendanee at the Domain, as this is the first senior game to be played there this »eason. The VilJagers are sleadily im-

proving with every outing and may surprise the Hastings fifteen, who will have to give of their best to dofeat them-
