All Blacks’ Hospitality
(Special Crspdt. N.Z.P.A.) BRISBANE, May 23.
“Absolute rubbish” and “Utter nonsense” were the comments of the All Black manager and assistant manager, Messrs J. D. King and R. G. Bush respectively, on items published in a Sydney newspaper alleging over-hospitality had been the cause of the team's loss to New’ South Wales last Saturday.
“It is true we have several official functions to attend in the first week in Australia. That happens to every touring team in any part of the world in which it might be travelling, but this allegation and all it implies is just foolish to the extreme,” said Mr King.
