One Sydney man with the Australasian team stated t'nut n i-ertain club had offered Burg? a :ce of 1 112000 down and a business position pro- ] riiled hi , would return to England and [put in the two yeans' residential qualiflication now demanded liv the Northern I Union authorities. An almost similar ! offer, it is declared, was made to . llorder. Whether the players t-oni-erned 'are likely to accept the propositions ua-i ; not stated. If the offers arc nnvthin« Mike what they are declared to lie one I would think that Barge and Hordor I would not be inclined to li">ht!v p-iee i them over.
