AUCKLAND AFFAIRS. FOUR CHATHAM CUP ENTRIES. REP. GAME FOR KING'S BIRTHDAY. The invitation sent by the Auckland Football Association to the South Auckland Association to play a rep. match at Blandford Park on Monday, June 4, came up for discussion at the weekly meeting of the A.F.A. Management Committee last night, Mr. A. Menzies presiding. The Waikato Association wrote accepting the invitation on the terms suggested and it was accordingly decided to make the fixture the first rep. match of the season. Four entries for the Chatham Cup competition were received, from Thistle, Ponsonby (holders), Y.M.C.A. and Belmont. It was decided to extend the closing date for entries for the mid-week competition for a further week.
