OUTDOOR SPORTS SOCCER FOOTBALL THREE GREAT ATTRACTIONS SATURDAY 3.15 P.M. DRUMMOND CUP MATCH AUCKLAND v. NAVY The Navy is here. Our old favourites are on deck again, and this time they will definitely be at full strength to t6st the home defences. The Auckland selector has left nothing to chance and has picked one of the strongest forward lines to represent Auckland for some time. The Navy don't care how hard the opposition may be as they have all the counters for to-morrow's game, and are highly confident that they can avenge their earlier defeat. Come and hear the boys in navyblue barrack. 1.45 P.M. Eastern Suburbs v. Comrades The climax of the season. Who will win the championship—Metro with one leg in or Comrades? The competition has never been so closely contested since the Shore-Philomel days, and Saturday will mark the end of the second round. Comrades must win so as to be level with Metro and a playoff would then be necessary. The Greens are confident of not only defeating Suburbs, but also Metro, in a play-off. Suburbs, however, who are a hard nut to crack and have had only one reverse in their last ten games are certain that Comrades will just be another victim, 12.45 P.M. Fiji Damu Damu (RED) V. Fiji Karakarawl , (GREEN) We have seen these Teams in action and it is with great pleasure that we present a same between two sides of striking physique, and who will play in bare feet. At the conclusion of the game a cubi (war dance) will be tiven, while at the interval of the main attraction native melodies will be rendered. Come and see Waqa, 6ft 6in centre half, Johnnie Vakalotoma, champion Suva boxer, and see a football kicked half the length of the field by these barefooted players.
