PREFERENTIAL RUGBY BOOKINGS
Sir,—Why is it that the St John Ambulance men who devote so much time and energy to Rugby football in patchins up broken fingers and noses of players where ever the game is plaved should receive so little thought from the union? These men are just as necessary to the game as referees ard players. They are on duty not for 40-minute spells, but sometimes frnm early morning, with boys’ grades, right through till the end of the late game about 4.30. The referees receive two preferential booking seats each. Ambulance men receive none.—Yours, etc., PLAYER. July 5, 1956.
