England thus wins the championship. FranM' 'fervently waited; to defeat Wales at Colombes Stadium, not for the «ake of beating Wales but of winning the championship. Had France won she would also have gained the championship for the first time in history. . There was a record crowd, the gates being shut an hour before the start* The honours in the scrums were fairly even, but the French backs lacked method, and chances W< The l> game S wa» a trifle rough. Tfcere were numerous instances of kicking and punch- ] ing, and after the interval further jrough play caused thfr rfifw?® to contwo a mfictinj of both teams for -a lecture, but the roughness only increased. , The game was spoilt by. stoppages, due to minor injuries and warnings. A Frenchroan got over the line and claimed, a try, but the referee ordered a scrum, C *°X,4 let loose pandemoniijm, which reigned until Wales scored two dropped goals and one try.

The Management Committee of the Canterbury Rugby League met last, evening, those present being Messrs F, Sheahan (ux the Chair), L. Amos, W. Cunningham, 0. O. Derrett, W. Rogers, 0. Allen, C. Hill, .B. Derrett, Li. Cox, R. McGloin, and H. King. The Junior Advisory Board reported that the regrading of three VVoolstou players had been referred to the Emergency pom mittee. The secretary (Mr A. Wylie) stated that - nine school teams and seven junior teams had entered, this being a rocord for Mr Cunningham denied a statement that the League ground at "Woolston Park had. been bo marked out that it encroached on the Rugby Union's playing area. The Woolston Club entering a team f 4 the correspondence forwarded to the Otago Leaguo with raferenoe to. the proposed visit ot. the. Australian Universities team, commencing on May 27th, was received from the New Zealand League. Mr Derrett said such a visit would .be very welcome to the players. He suggested that the matter be referred to the Emergency Committee. . Mr Cunningham said it was very unfair that the West Coast was not being considered* ■ • The Emergency Committee was given power to act in the matter. ...... A copy -of the remits for the annual. conference of the New Zealand League was received. The Canterbury delegate, Mr L. : Amos, was instructed as'to the committee e ] attitude in these matters. He was given a ; free hand on the question of the representation of arecwitly-forjned Leagues. Similar action was taken m. regard to a remit favouring a levy for assisting new Leagues. Delegates supported the appointment ©f three selectors for the,. South Island, with | the playing of a Possibles-Probables match, »nd the "inter-Island game at Christchurch. It was agreed that Mr Amos support the election to life membership of the New Zealand League of Mr J, Thomas, of Rotorua. The West Coast remit that the pext Australian team to visit the Dominion be given a match against that province was supported, and the delegate was also instructed to vote in favour of. financial assistance being given to the West Coast League for its ground improvement fund. Mr Rogers said the Linwood Club prte posed to ask the City Council to allow the erection of a pavilion in Linwood Park, JL O'Connor's Suap&udon. A. O'Connor (Waimairi) applied to appear before the committee to give reasons whjr his suspension should be lifted.

The chairman ruled that O'Connor dwuld be admitted. ■ ■ ■ •. „ , He said he had accepted .office, in . tM, Sydenham Club while suspended, believing, that only h'.s status aa a player'was affected. As soon as he learned that hie aaepenßion also disqualified him from taking office lie resigned his position. . A . Mr Amoi asked . OOonnor -whether, he in a member of a LeagUe Olnb at JWMnt. The chairman (aid that liav}nj;reeignßd from the Sydenham Club O'Connor ..was. now i not a member of any League olnb. .-v<. 7l O'Connor said he was nnable to attend the i last meeting, through .illness. ■ .. Mr McGloin said in view of the mistaken; action'of the Sydenham Olub in appointing | Dr. Thacker to 6ffico, O'Connor's mistake might be overlooked. Messrs Alien and Cunningham Buoyed that j O'Connor's suspension be removed. . I Mr Amos said O'Connor was an excellent | player, but he must not be flowed to do m. lie liked with the. rales. Mr Sheshsn said, he' was prepared to accept O'Connor's explanation. , Mr Allen said he'could not allow a statement that O'Connor had played .ducks and, drakes with the rules to go unchallenged. He had »oted ina manly and constitutional fashion. - Mr Amos "Was the only dissentient to a motion that the suspension be lifted. Saturday'!
