Tlie tendency with some travelling footballers to regard Uieir ropresentativi, visits to other centres as

something in the nat.ire of a. free-auy-easy picnic, was emphatically discouraged on Monday evening by the Ota.go Football Association. Two members of the Ota go team which travelled to Chri.stehureli. sa,\.s the Ota go Daily Times, were not ainena'ble to that discipline which is essential if a team is to take the field in proper physical condition. As a consequence the Association decided that the.se two players should not 'lie selected for anv future Ota 30 representative matches.

The Streets Committee last evening recommended tho Borough Council (a) to request tho District Engineer (X.Z.K.) to give an estimate of the cost of a. culvert under the railway line at the southern side of Tyll.pl street crossing: (b) also to ■estimate the cost of additional culvert opposite Devon stre?t; (c) that the Engine?! , he ■'■k?:\ uiieiiih.er he would recomiiiMid the Department to bf.ar at loast a p'.rtlon of the cost (particularly of the Devon street culvert), s ing that the natural dia ; ii'\T ''i' the l:;-ility is obstructed by the railway line embankment. Or. Llannan. as chairman c-f t'.ic Streets Committee..moved, and Cr Lancaster k?coiklo<L the ado])tioiL of paragraph A. CV. France considered that the. Government, under the circumstances, might to put the culvert in. and as an amendment, he movrd that tlie, Department be asked to bmr the cost of putting in a. culvert. During the recent si onus the culverts were absolutely unable to pope, with the. rush of water. This was particularly .so in tili'O case of Devon strpet. The Town Clerk then read a letter from the district engineer which th.e council 'had received some months ago. In this, the Engineer stated that tho cost of putting in a culvert in that bralitv would fall on the boroug'li. Cr. Franco opined that the Kngitveer knew nothing .Pibr. it-the I'acb of tho. case or about drainage. Messrs -Jones and Collier, of Tyne street, who live near Cambrid-xe street end, attended ns n. deputation, and Mr Jones urged that the culvert was far too small to - ipo with the flow of water. He mi <z rested thnt a culvort should be put in at a lowen , level under the pro ent railway crossing. Thio existin t ciulvei't was too high. Cr. Fr.vice held that in Devon street th?. Railway Department w.as en-tii-!y responsible. .Sinhsequently he withdrew his amendment. The iMii'srapli was then ad-opted, as was al- : clause B. The Mnvor suggested i'hat the District Engineer he as'r'-d to mret blie Sti'eets Committee, and accompany them over the particular locality. A motion to this effort was agreed to.
