February 0, Mr Hill, i secretary of the New South Wales Rugby Union, has returned from a trip to England and America, He considers there is little' to choose between the South Africans, Australians, and New Zealanders at football. Ho attributes tho victory of the Africans over Wales to splendid goal-kicking rather than marked superiority or ground play. Th© amateur , game in England was never at so high a standard, and there were never .bigger attendances at matches. In Mr _ Hill’s opinion this is tho result of the visits of colonial teams to England.
