It is hardly fair that our- men should have to go to Wellington 'again, as the latter club already owes tbjj]| Wanganui Club two visits, still iwith ! $he present attractions on m the Epopire City there would be no difficulty •••in" getting together a really strong teamv r .-& ;±aatch with Nelson is spoKeh p^ -an^i-yiiOTgh the club there haye i iielteather isore^ith Wanganui since^he" last; match, they seem inclined to : taker u^tbefmnning. again, and the question has therefore been placed betore the Union. ; '. .•:
