FOOTBALL.
A DISTORTED REPORT. By Telegraph—Press Assn., Copyright. CHRISTCHURCH, August 24. “ Of all the contemptible newspaper reports of any match during my long association with the game, 1 have seen .nothing more so than the reference to stretcher-hearers being continually on the field during the second test match at Dunedin,” declared E. Osborn (manager of the English Rugby League team) last night. Osborne stated that tho remit of which lie complained showed'such a palsied view that he could only imagine it to he the comment of a writer who had either had a very had night or else was suffering from a distorted imagination. A stretcher was used only once, to carry off Delgrosso, the New Zealand lullback.
