The fact that football matches are, played on Sunday at Reefton was brought under the attention of the New Zealand Rugby Union last week by the Reefton Lord’s Day League.

It was decided to send the ’etter on to the Reefton Rugby Union for consideration, Mr S'. S. Dean, referring to the matter, -said that personally lie did not see any reason why matches should not lie played on Sundays ; tennis and golf were allowed.
