BRITISH RUGBY TEAM
Profits of Tour AUSTRALIA’S REQUEST Sydney, September 13. The New South Wales Rugby Union is making representations to New Zealand to forgo New Zealand’s share in the receipts from the British team’s matches here in view of the large profit the New Zealand body received from the British tour of the Dominion. It is stated that in the event of New Zealand agreeing, New South Wales will receive about £lOOO. If not, the New South Wales Union will just about make ends meet. The Queensland Union expects to lose money on the British tour.
[The secretary of the New Zealand Rugby Union, Mr. S. E. Neilson, stated last evening that he had heard of the request of the New South Wales Rugby Union, but had received no official communication from Sydney.)
