THOUGHTS FOR THE TIMES
Pi,ay Ur. And Play The Game. !
Naturally our players will be keen to bring back a good record of games won, and the South Africans will be as anxious to establish a good record for the credit of R.ugbv in the Union, but New Zealand will be well satisfied with a record of games played in the true spirit of football, win or lose. Keenness must not he allowed to develop into antagonism, or partisanship into enmity. The Finlayson incident, admittedly unpleasant, may awaken loth South Africans and'. New Zealand players and public to the danger of placing too much importance on the outcome of the matches, and of overlooking tlie real and friendly puipese which the tour was designed to serve. —Lyttelton Times..
