The end of the year ha.- now arrived and still the decision as to who won the Putaruru Rugby Union’s competition last season has not been mafic, it is now nearly five months since the competition finished and in another three or four months it will be time to commence arranging for the next- season. However, if things are allowed to continue without being definitely settled, there will probably be little enthusiasm forthcoming then. For the sake of the sport and the satisfaction of all the clubs in the union it thus now obviously behoves the management committee of the union to hold a final meeting to settle the question. It is apparently quite hopeless to expect the New Zealand Union or the Waikato union to do this now, as they have both consistently ignored the letters from the Putaruru union’s secretary appealing for a settlement of the case. The fact of them treating' any affiliated union in this way is of course most regrettable but the Putaruru union should now prove equal to the problem by taking the matter back into its own hands and definitely deciding the case one way or the other. It should not be difficult now to reach unanimity, and it is thus to he hoped that an early event in the New Year will be the convening of. .a meeting of the management committee by the chairman for this purpose.
