THE ALL BLACKS.

TO-MORROW'S MATCH. Harvey Plays His Second Game Of Tour. TOURISTS SIGHT-SEEING. (Special to N.Z. Press Association.) (Received 9 a.m.) OUDTSHOORN, August 21. The New Zealand Rugby team to play against the South Western Districts at Oudtshoorn to-morrow is:— Full-back: Lindsay. Three-quarters: Ruslibrook, Carleton, Lucas. Five-eighths: Nicholls, McGregor. Half-back: Strang. Rover: Scrimshaw. Front row: Burrows, Hadley. Middle row: Stewart, Harvey, McWilliams.

Back row: Ward, Snow

There is great surprise at the inclusion of Harvey after so much illness, but the match is regarded as an easy one, which probably explains the fact. In any case the team is very pleased that Harvey is fit enough to take the field again, for the first time since the first match at Capetown.

McGregor is included again, after seven weeks' forced spell. Hore is suffering front a poisoned thigh, but the trouble is not regarded as serious.

Tlio All Blacks to-day went through the famous Ca'ngo caves, seventeen miles from Oudtslioorn. The visit to these limestone caves was one of the most interesting and delightful outings of the tour. The drive in itself was worth while, since it led through green fertile valleys, reminding the visitors of New Zealand. Once arrived at the caves the party changed into businesslike football clothes, and explored the wonders, which are really fine examples of stalactite and stalagmite formation. The caves have been lighted for a great distance with blue and red bulbs, which throw a. soft light on the walls and roofs of the various chambers.
