PAEWAI UNDECIDED
**he Auckland climate appears to be exercising a subtle fascination over Hawke’s Bay Maori
players, for L. Paewai, besides Barclay, has been thinking of settling here. A native of Dannevirke, Paewai is a member of a wealthy Hawke’s Bay family, and can afford to be independent in his movements. He first came into prominence in 1923, when he
was chosen to ♦our with the 1923 Maori team, which was involved in the Ongarue raliway disaster on its return from Australia. A fine type of player, only inferior to Nepia because he is more mercurial in his methods, Paewai would be a welcome acquisition to Auckland Rugby.
