THE RUGBY GAME.
SOME UNEXPECTED RESULTS,
By Telegraph—Press Association. Wellington, Last Night.
The Rugby senior championship round opened on Saturday, and provided some unexpected finishes. St. James wiped the floor (to put it mildly) with the ex-champion Petane team, and two other teams, formerly on tlie also-started, list, came to ligiit ia a manner confounding to their opponents. These were Victoria College, who scored an easy win .over Old Boys, and Southern., who held their own, after a stubborn fight, with Oriental. Results:—
St. James beat Petone, 14 to nil. Athletic beat Hutt, 16 to nil. Melrose beat Wellington, 6 to 3. Victoria College Ibeat Old Boys, 8 to 3. Oriental drew with Southern (no score).
ASSOCIATION GAME. Wellington, Last Night. In the Association senior games Swifts beat Rovers, 1 to nil. Diamonds beat Y.M.C.A., 2 to 1. Thistles beat Ramblers, 2 to 1.
