MEN’S HOCKEY

SOUTHLAND ASSOCIATION. A meeting of the Southland Men’s Hockey Association was held on Wednesday night when there were present: Messrs Doig (in the chair), Cordery, Gregg, Wren, Roberts, Hobson, Heaton, Webster and Deacon. The business was chiefly concerned with the visit of the Otago High School Old Boys’ Club on June 3. Arrangements for meeting and billeting the visitors who are to arrive on Monday night were made. The times for the various matches were then arranged and it was decided to have a dinner for the -teams on Tuesday night after which the visitors would depart. It was also resolved to take up a collection on the grounds to help the association in its work. The Otago junior team will play a combined team chosen from the other Invercargill clubs at 10 o’clock in the morning. At 2 o’clock in the afternoon, a further match has been arranged between the Otago junior team and the Southland Boys’ High School A team. As this latter team is composed of young and keen players a good game should result. At 11 a.m. the association has arranged, as an added attraction, a game between Wednesday and Saturday players. The visitors will arrive about 11.30 on Monday night by bus and will be taken in charge by their Invercargill hosts. There will be a dinner on Tuesday night after the games. Draw For To-morrow. The following is the draw for to-morrow afternoon:—Civil Service A v. Collegiate A (2 p.m.) ; High School A v. Civil Service B (3 p.m.); Collegiate B v. High School B (3.15). Central a bye.

British stores are fitted with real teeth and real hair, which is “planted” hair by hair. A royal sturgeon weighing 7st was landed at Lowestoft a few weeks ago by a steam trawler. It was bought for conveyance to London. Sturgeon is “royal” fish, and in legal theory all sturgeons caught in British waters belong to the King. •<
