strong First Team It is apparent also that whatever nay be said of some of the members, l first-class first team will be availLblo for the selectors during the tour Such a combination, for instance, as 3ufty, Tittleton, Brisbane, Pearce, Wether ill, Gregory, Abbott, Trautvetter, Stephenson, Calder, Timms. S. LTlark and Eckhoff (which is a possible Irst team on form shown in New Zeaand) could be relied on to put up a ?reat fight against Australia’s best, as J :hat best is known in the Dominion j it the present time. * * * Slothing to Fear Forward It is likely that New Zealand will have little to fear forward. Jonathan Parkin's pack which played in Australia before coming to New Zealand, ivas hailed in Sydney as the “terrible six,” but in all the games played in the Dominion the local forwards were [luite able to hold tlieir own. It is on such grounds that faith can be pinned 3n the Enzed forwards. Behind the scrum, however, things may be different. New Zealand has brilliant individualists, but on Saturday there was not a great deal of really effective combined back play. Even in this case, however, it can be well expected that the touring team will develop a degree of combination which could never be expected in an interrsland game. ♦ * * Average Age of 25 Th© average age of the members of ; the team is slightly over 25 years. The average weight of the forwards is 13st, and of the backs just under llist. Watene, the City player, is the youngest member of the 22, hav-

ing seen only 19 summers. The oldest player is Jones, of South Auckland, who is 31, but Dufty and Wetlierill, who are both 30, come close seconds. The lightest member of the party is Abbott. of South Auckland, who turns the scale at 9st 31b. Calvin

Dufty is the heaviest member of: the party, weighing just over 14ist. . * * Ages and Weights of Players In the following tabic the ages and weights of 21 of the 22 players for

Chatting with Mr. J. Iv. Worrall during the week-end, one gained the impression that the thirteen-a-side code, although facing many difficulties, is making real progress in the South. Mr. Worrall, who managed the South j Island team, is the South Island sole j selector, and also the chairman of the i Management Committee of the Canter- i bury Rugby League. The executive of i the Cathedral City had, he said, final control of Monica Park at last, and although the ground was not in the central position the Auckland ground occupied. Mr. Worrall looked forward to the time when the Canterbury Leagnie would be able to draw 10,000 gates as the Auckland League can today. * * * Among those who turned out at Carlaw Park on Sunday morning to see the All Blacks assemble was Mr. James Carlaw, the *‘cjrand old man’’ of the game in New Zealand. Returns on August 19 The New Zealand team which sails from Wellington on Friday week next, plays its first match of the tour at Sydney against New South Wales on July o. The last match of tlie tour : is against Sydney University at Sydney on August 13. and on August 19 the team sails on the return trip to Wellington. * * * May Play Kangaroos The itinerary as at present arranged allows for a match New Zealand v. New South Wales or Australia, at Sydney on August 4. This doublebanking of the fixture means that if the Australian authorities think the
