FOOTBALL.
O A GOOD “GATE.”
The gate receipts from the New Zealand v. New South Wales League match at Auckland on the same day as the Plunket Shield match with Otago wore £7ll. This is by no means a record, however. In Dunedin, when Bedell-Sivrigilt’s team played" pn the Caledonian Ground, over £9OO was taken. When Harding’s British team were at Carisbrook, and the fence was broken down as a protest against the “two bob” tariff, over £BOO was collected, and the takings for the New Zealand-British match at Wellington topped the four figure mark.
