Horowhenua Chronicle, 19 April 1913, Page 3

Victoria is producing a new type of woman (says the Melbourne correspondent of a Sydney paper)". She is to be seen every Saturday afternoon indulging vigorously in men's sports, from football to hockey, and many of her sporting clubs have on their belts the scalps of men's societies. One of the Amazons has now applied to the Victorian Foothall Association for a position as Held umpire. She says she is of fine physique, and possesses a sound knowledge of the game, and suggests that she has such command of language that she could hold her own in any football controversy.
