CALL FOR MEYER
AUCKLAND RUGBY TEAM FIRST FIVE-EIGHTH ON HOLIDAY The renowned combination of the Auckland Rugby representative team may be upset on Saturday by the absence of Meyer, the first five-eighth, who is a Training College student, on holiday, and has gone to his home at Hikurangi. Meyer got a place in the team through C. Badeley's inability to play. Badeley hurt his thigh against Manawhenua, and the muscles are still stiff. The selector, Mr. V. Meredith, is reluctant to alter the composition of the threequarter line, and Meyer has been invited to return for the occasion. If he cannot come back, N. Jenkins, the Varsity first five-eighth, ,s likely to be his successor. Badeley had a run to-day. His leg has no* fully recovered.
There will be no curtain-raiser to Saturday’s match.
