Half-back, T. Thompson. Forwards, Te Ngaio, Waerea, Parsons, Maclcey, Archer, Jones, Barber, R. Thompson. Emergencies, Poland, Brennen, Garliclc, Sullivan. The new representative colours are white jerseys, black shorts, black stockings with white tops. A sub-eommittee consisting of Messrs. Leslie Clarke, T. Anderson, A. G. Cottrell and the secretary was set up to arrange for transport in order that the players may make train connection from Rotorua. The team manager will be Mr. H. G. Cottrell. The secretary reported that Matamata would visit Rotorua on July 16, to play a representative game for the Findlay Cup. It was decided that, until a definite ruling was received from the N.Z. Union on the matter, players leaving the field on account of injury could he replaced throughout the match. The Rotorua High School First XV. will visit Hamilton to play against the Hamilton High School on Saturday. As the senior teams were depleted on account of the representative fixture, the senior games for next Saturday were abandoned. Saturday's Draw. The draw for Saturday is as follows : — Junior A.
