AN EXCITING GAME
BETWEEN HOROWHBNUA AND RANGITIKEI. By Telegraph.—Special to the "Times." MARTON, June 12. The representative match between Hdrowhenua and Rangitikei proved a fast and exciting game. In the first spell there was no score, but the honours rested with Rangitikei, who missed several excellent opportunities. _ Brilliant parsing by Rangitikei backs enabled Payne to score the only try of the match. His kick at goal failed. Horowheuna rallied, and were awarded a free-kick, from which L. McDonald was successful in placing a goal, and •bo game ended in being drawn. Jacobs, of Horowlienua was the .most prominent player, and saved his team several times.
The North Island selector (Mr G. Nicholson) and the Wanganui selectors witnessed the game.
