Above is the Taupo District High School Rugby Representative team in the Ross Shield Tournament. The results of the tournament held at Waipukurau last week, which appear on another page, do not adequately convey the quality of the team which represented the district. They enjoyed three days of splendid football experience and the captain, Wineera, was described in the Hawke's Bay press as the most promising three-quarter in the tournament. The team in the photo above are as follows: Back row (left to right).—B. Wall, M. Hurae (Taupo), B. Tatana, W. Wraki Mokai), W. Wall (Waitahanui), A. Smallman (Tauranga-Taupo) and S. Pitiroi (Taupo). Front row (left to right).— H. Whetu (Taupo), P. Northcroft (Waitahanui), E. Kirikau (Maroa), A. Crowther, B. Wineera, Captain (Taupo), D. Marshall (Mokai), T. Withers (Maroa), M. Gordin (Taupo), R.
