The Canterbury team to play Melbourne on Friday, Saturday and Monday at Christchurch is ns follows:—AT. K. Boon (Linwood). AV. Cunningham (Sydenham), C. E. Evans (Riecarton), I. IM. Hamilton (Old Collegians), AY. E. Merritt (Old Boys), D. C. Nixon (Old Boys), C. Oliver (Sydenham), M. L. Page (Malvern), R. Read (Linwood), A. Roberts (Riecarton), R. 0. Talbot (Linwood). 'l’lio selectors decided that as the team that played Otago had done so well, they would play the same side on ..is occasion. This has been acted upon, except that Roberts replaces f'rawford. who is not well. But for the decision to play the same team that met Otago, it is probable that Jacobs (Old Boys) would have been chosen.
