PLUWKET SHIELD. OTAGO Y. WELLINGTON. (By Telegraph.—Press Association.) DUNEDIN, Thursday. In consequence of the funeral of the late King, the Otago Cricket Association has suggested to the! Wellington Association and the New Zealand Council that the Plunket Shield match, which would normally have been concluded on> Tuesday, should now end on Wednesday. M.C.C TOUR. CHANGES IN ITINERARY, ENGLISHMEN'S GENEROSITY. (By Telegraph.—Own Correspondent). V PALMERSTON NORTH, Thursday. The touring. Marylebone Cricket Club "•Seam will play a Manawatu eleven at Palmereton North on February 4 and 5. It is mainly due to the generosity of E. R. T. Holmes and members of his team that the match has been made possible. To play Manawatu the visitors will have to forgo a much-deeded spell and a fishing trip to Taupo. Owing to the funeral of the late King taking place on Tuesday, the match against Taranafci will be played on Monday and Wednesday, instead of on Tuesday and Wednesday. , <,
