A Wellington telegram says:— This year two selectors will be appointed to choose the New Zealand representative teams. The Management Committee of the New Zealand Union, in coining to this decision, resolved that the atlillated unions should be circularised for nominations. One selector will be picked from the South Island, one from the North Island, and in the event of any dispute arising a member of the New Zealand Union will be called in to decide. These selectors will also pick the North Island and South Island Teams. The meeting also decided to send letters to all unions dealing with the proposal to call a conference for the establishment of an Imperial Rugby Board as suggested at the annual meeting of delegates last week.

The team to represent Clyde-Earns-cleugh at Cromwell on Saturday will be chosen from the following:— Forwards: T. Stevens. L. Kelliher. J. Robertson, N. Kinnaird, C. Iversen, M. Thompson, G.
