Timaru Rugby Disclosures
.Sir,—Why is Dr. Adams being condemned for “letting the ent out of the bag” regarding the British match at Timaru? It was common knowledge throughout the South Island, and several newspapers published the fact that a British player had left the field bearing teeth marks. It seems strange that it should take two weeks for this information to>>reach the North Island. — I am, etc., "DEVONIA.” Wellington. July 17. Sir,—Mr. Budd, in explaining the “Timaru disaster,” tells us the name of the British player who he alleges kicked a New Zealand player: also the name of a member of the visiting team who he alleges punched an opponent. I wonder if he will be a snort and tell its the name of the player who bit Prentice,: also the transgressor to the other British player Dr. Adams mentioned, “who left the field with (i grave injury.” There are two sides to a question usually.—-I am. etc., BARKER. July 17.
