C.F.A. To Apply
“Canterbury will definitely i apply for one of the two i games in New Zealand,” said Mr J. Smith, chairman of the i Canterbury Football Associa- ' tion, last evening, referring to I the visit of the Scottish nat- i ional soccer team. 1 “We will send a telegram to the N.Z.F.A. tomorrow. I “We have the facilities and 1 the public support in Christ- j
church as good as anywhere in New Zealand. “We will apply to stage the game on behalf of the South Island and the bottom half of the North Island. Auckland is likely to get the other game.” Mr Smith said that Canterbury would also ask that a full New Zealand team would play Scotland in Christchurch.
