INDIAN HOCKEY TEAM’S VISIT
LETTER FROM FIELD-MARSHAL BIRDWOOD. By Telegraph.—Press Association Christchurch, September 22. lu a letter to Mr. H. J. Goodman, president of the New Zealand Hockey Association, Field-Marshal Sir William Birdwood expresses thanks for the treatment of the Indian Army hockey team, and proceeds: "It is not very often that men of distant parts of the Empire are able to get really into close touch with each other, and I often think any misunderstandings that may arise are due almost entirely to ignorance of each other. Any opportunity of replacing ignorance by knowledge is therefore to be most heartily welcomed.”
