New Zealand attacked from the first bully and never let up until the final whistle. There was great combination between Turbitt, Bay, and Anthony, while Joblin was a tower of strength in the halves, and Spiers and Ewan provided splendid defence. Australia’s defence was weak on the left side, and among a poor forward display Cormie’s work stood out. Bay made history by winning a penalty bully in a Test match. Half-time found New Zealand leading by 3 to 0. The New Zealand team was unchanged in'the second half, but Australia replaced Tart at centre-half with Wanless without avail. New Zealand’s forwards were irreslstable, Turbitt playing the game of his career. Anthony suffered a minor hurt. Spiers staved off several strong attacks in the closing stages, when Australia showed some patches of brighter work. I Nice passing by Munro at centre-half was responsible for three goals. The scorers were Turbitt (four), Bay (two), Reid (one). The Governor, Sir Philip Game, was present and was introduced to the teams. AUSTRALIAN CARNIVAL (By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright.) (Rec.
