A correspondent writes—The longdelayed match between the Pirates and Stars (Grey) is to take place on Cass Square on Saturday next at 3 p.m. Speculation has been rife as to which is the better team but the forthcoming match will settle all arguments. We are sure of “The Brannigans” giving a good account of themselves seeing that Coach Mick Keeuau has had the handling of the boys and its “an old dog for a hard road” and Slick has been at the game before. The Stars have a hard nut to crack when they tackle the “Brauns” so come along on Saturday as Barty, Wib, Skiv, Ginger, K-K-Ivaty and other noted characters of the team will let you see a good game of football.
