DEVONPORT SHIELD GAMES.

REPRESENTATIVE TRIALS

On Saturday the Auckland Hockey Association will suspend the championship round and substitute the first and second rounds of the Devonport Shield competition. The teams having the bye vvill play a match against a trial representative team.

As all the stronger clubs will have some of their members in the trial team anil will thus have to field junior substitutes, some surprises may eventuate. In the first round to be played at 1.40 p.m. Papa-, toetoe should extend University, whilst! Mount Eden may upset Somerville, who will be without the services of three of their best forwards. Wesley and St. Luke's should provide a good exhibition. Grammar will be pitted against the trial team. In the second round, scheduled for 3.50 p.m.. Somerville will find Papatoetoe a hard nut to crack, and Wesley meet Mount Eden, whilst it will be interesting to see if Grammar can repeat their performance against St. Lukes. University will be opposed to the triai team for " the second try out. Teams engaged: — GRAMMAR OLD BOYS. Seniors.—Anderson. Moore. Hay, Harriott, W. Ross, La wry, Armstrong, J.
