CRICKET TOURISTS.
BALANCE-SHEET WANTED. .. ' ASSOCIATION DISAPPOINTED.".. WELLINGTON, Tuesday. Attention was drawn a* a meeting of the coimci'. of the New Zealand Football Association thi3 evening to delay in issuing a balance-sheet of the tour of the New Zealand cricket team to England. Mr. F. Campbell, chairman, said that about a year ago the council took up £100 worth of shares, of which half was paid up, in Now Zealand Cricket, Ltd., for the tour of the New Zealand cricket team to England. They were promised that when the manager returned to New Zealand the whole thing would be straightened up, and they had heard no more. They were looking for a balancesheet of that tour and for return of any sum which might be due to them. It was very dilatory on the part cf the New Zealand Cricket Council that the matter had been left over so long.
The chairman moved: "That this association is very disappointed at the delay in publishing a balance-sheet and in repayment of any money invested in New Zealand Cricket, Ltd., and requests that body to furnish us with a statement." Mr. J. A. Mullin seconded the motion, which was carried. It was thought that the council might get back 4/ or 5/ for each 10/ paid up.
