THE WING FORWARD.
MR BAXTER’S STATEMENT
(By Telegraph—Bresa Association)
AUCKLAND, May 26
There is much comment in Auckland to-day on the reported statement by Mr Baxter, Manager of the British Rugby team, that the wing forward is a deliberate cheat.
Mr J. Ameil. President of the Auckland Rugby "Union, said: “I think Mr Baxter must have forgotten himself.” The statement is altogether too sweeping and tantamount, to accusing some of the most prominent men in New Zealand, who once played wing-fonvard of being cheats. Mr Baxter was illadvised to make such a charge.
