ASSOCIATION FOOTBALL

SATURDAY’S GAMES. GLEN MABBEY AT SEDDON PARK , . ROVERS VISFT HUNTLY. Fixtures in the South Auckland Football Association’s senior competition, to be played next Saturday, are as follows : Starr Town v. Rovers, at Huntly; Rotowaro v. Pukemiro, at Rotowaro; Wanderers v. Glen Massey, at Seddon Park. The fame in Hamilton will mark the first appearance of Glen Massey at Seddon Park this season. Although the young combination may rise to the occasion, they are hardly likely to beat Wanderers, especially after the latter’s improved' showing last Saturday. Starr Town should not find Rovers difficult, while at Rotowaro the •local side will have to toe playing at the top of their form to get a decision over Pukemiro, who at the present time are a very solid combination, and the logical result for this contest would be a draw.

Each player selected to play in the AucklandSouth Auckland game would be required to pay 5s to cover the cost of expenses, which would have to toe borne by the association, and Messrs J.

The matter of increased seating accommodation at Seddon Park was left in the hands of Mr A. Rogerson. Mr J. T. Reid's resignation was accepted, Mr L. W. Gurnell being appointed to fill the vacancy.
