Rugby Both Teams Train For Test

(New Zealand Press Association) WELLINGTON, August 21. The All Blacks had further training at Athletic Park today, and the Australians trained there later in the day. The All Black forwards were made to do a lot of hard work, and a central figure in many of the moves was the North Auckland flanker. P. F. Jones. . In the backs, K. Davis (half-back) was most impressive. Asked if he had any comment to offer on the prospects for Saturday’s test, Mr J. L. Sullivan, convener of the New Zealand selection committee, said: “I will say that international matches are not easily won. We expect a hard game.’’
