Theonlv Hag fixture in Vincent lor Saturda'. is ; / Bannockburn v. Clyde, to be played at Clyde, Releree, Mr King. Tire New Zealand University team gave an excellent account in Australia, winning all live matches. Cuthill ; one of the Otago reps., played splendidly, and is reckoned by Australian critics . one of the best centre threequarters that the Dominion has yet sent across. Mv report of the Bannockburn-Low-burn fixture (which was plaved on the 12th) miscarried. Bannockburn won the match easily by ’opts to 3pts, The Maoris defeated Southland on Wednesday afternoon last, by Bto 5, but they were very lucky to come out on top. The Southland forwards had their opponents in trouble throughout, but the home team's backs gave a poor showing. Alexandra defeated Lowborn on Saturday by two points (2 tries) to nil. The winners had the advantage of the wind in the first spell and though they scored two tries they did not make the best use of their advantage. Roddie Tohill and Lcs Thompson each scored a try. In the second spell, though the wind had died down, the Lowbnru forwards gave a good display and the plav w r as pretty even. The Clyde Juniors journeyed to Matakanui on Saturday, when they had an enjoyable game. Matakanui won by nine points (3 tries) to 3 points (a try scored by M. Keliher). The following team has been chosen to represent Clyde on Saturday ; Fullback, Waldron; three-quarters, Higgs, Dawson and Weaver ; five-eighths, Crawford and Gye ; half, Spain ; forwards, W. Waddell, C. Naylor, W. Smith, H. Cameron, J. Weaver, S. Waddell, A. Holden, wing. Connor.
