THE INTER-ISLAND MATCH. , '• .. ' - ' ' ' 1 (By Telegraph.—Press Association.) WELLINGTON, Wednesday. Great interest is being taken in the North v. South Island match, to be played at.the Athletic Park on. Saturday. Since the good performance put up by the Otago team against Wellington the chances of the South Island have brightened up considerably. The North Island combination will be without the services of Roberts (halfback) on account of an injury received whilst playing against Hawke's Bay, .and 'his place will be taken by H. Kiernan (Auckland). Glasgow (Hawke's Bay), another member of the late New Zealand team, is also unable to assist, the North Island, and his place -will be taken by t. Cross (Wellington). It is more than likely that Wallace will also be unable to play, in which case J7 O'Leary (Wairafapa) should, bave a chance of inclusion, as Mltchinson (Wellington) is incapacitated.
