MORE LIFE AND DASH NEEDED.

A DIFFICULT WEEK IN WALES,

(United Press Association —Copyright) (Received This Day, 10.55 a.m.) LONDON, October 21. The All Black forwards discussed tactics for over an hour and are determined to find remedies for the poor scrummaging.

Mr V. R. Meredith is urging more life and dash,' and is making an effort to curtail the entertainment in Cardiff, as he is convinced that more sleep and earlier nights are essential. The newspapers predict that the All Blacks will encounter a difficult week in Wales.

The Llanelly team includes four in ternationals, although Ivor Jones and D. John are veterans, the latter having played against the New Zealanders in 1924. Both are in excellent form.
