TO 181 EDIIOI. Tp-day's report on the representative cricket match ih Christchiiroh sayg:-^ "Wellington liae never had the honour bf hoiadng the shield before, whilst Canterbury has held it for so long that the Whereabouts of the coveted trophy Was a tnatter of some, doubt until a few days before, the patoh." Now. Sir, i 3 this what the shield is presented for— "to hide"? I think it is long due time that the uliibld was "taken" from bhbse \vho show no appreciation for it. So let Us makfe surfl that we Wellington spdrts don't have to ':dig it out"' from howhere prior to a match.^-^I am, etc, OLD SPORT. '27th Deceihber. .
