CHAMPIONS MEET
Shearing To M. Potae
(N.Z. Press Association) HAMILTON. March 20. Five champions staged a thrilling battle in the final of the New Zealand Maori shearing championships last night at the Golden Fleece Wool exhibition in Hamilton. Top honours went to M. Potae. The going was so close that Potae’s win came on the quality of his work. However, he also turned in second-fast-est time. Second place went to G. Hawkins and fastest time to M. Huges with ISmin 31.6 sec for 15 sheep. The junior championship went to T. Horney who finished his five sheep in 9min 49.25ec.
