HOCKEY.

WAIRARAPA.LADIES' ASSOCIATION. RAMBLERS v. MASTERTON HIGH SCHOOL. t A match was played on the Schuoll grounds, yesterday afternoon, between the Ramblers and Masterton District High School teams. A '"ast and interesting game was witnessed by thejaree number of spectators present. In the first spell there was no score, though the Ramblers had the best of the play. Shortly after the commencement of the second spell a splendid piece of play on the part of Miss Vera Hunter resulted in that player scoring a goal for the School. Ramblers then made determined efforts individually to equalise matters, but failed until Miss N. O'Leary by tricky play broke through the School defence, and registered a goal. There was no further score, the game resulting in a draw —one goal each. The Ramblers had somewhat the best of the game, but sadly lacked combination. The School girls put up a plucky fiqht against their old and more experienced opponents. Mr B. Iveson was referee.
