RUGBY MATTERS.

MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE

MEETS,

Those present at Tuesday night’s meeting of the Management Committee of the Horowhenua Rugby Union held in Levin, were: Messrs. Proctor (chairman ). Hutchins, Amici .-on, McDonald, Sloan, hrect tling, Hannan, and Austin.

During the Hui Mai —Foxton Senior match Air, Head, the referee, had occassion to order off Wallace, a Hui Mai player, for kicking an opponent who was lying on the ground. The player in question, during his statement last night to the committee said that as lie, Wallace was about to kick the hall and made a dive for it, hut he had no dear recollection of kicking the man, although if lie did kick a Foxton player lie was sorry for it. — Resolved that Wallace he cautioned. At last week’s committee meeting a resolution was carried to the effect that no matches he played on the 2(itli September, hut a motion was passed last night rescinding the previous resolution, and it was decided to play the final Nash Cup » match, between Hui Mai and Coun- "7 ly, on that date. Mr. Anderson said that had the original motion been allowed to stand it would probably have meant no final game could he played, as the committee could not reasonably expect a team to train iiideiinitely, and a good many of the County players came a fair distance in order to practice.

The iirst match for the Austin Banner will be played on 2Gth September. All games for Saturday next, the ltffh instant, have been postponed.
