THE ALL BLACKS
"SOUTH AFRICAN TOUR The New Zealand Rugby football team is expected to arrive at Durban to-morrow and at Capetown on Sunday next. The touring party will be met by officials of tho South African Bugby Union in Durban, and a decision will bo arrived at regarding the playing of the first match, set down for Wednesday of next week. Opportunity will also be taken to arrange a conference between the tourists and the South African referees. This is to be held in Capetown, the idea being to make the New Zealanders conversant with the South African rulings before they play their first match. The possibility of tho visitors■not being able to grasp the full inten; tion and significance of some interprei / tions was mentioned at the annual meeiing of the South African Society of Beferees, and' a suggestion was made that a second conference be held after the All Blacks had played a' few matches. The suggestion, however; did not find favour with the meeting.
