"QUITE SATISFACTORY"
(Special to "The Evening Post.") CHRISTCHURCH, This Day. Commenting on the Rugby result, Read Masters, the lock of the 1924 team, said: "Personally I think that the result is'quite satisfactory. It seems to me rather a coincidence that we beat Devon in our first match by 11-0, nearly the same score. On that occasion we got rather a su'rpriso because we did not expect the opposition. Wo have not got a lino on the game of the Western Provinces, but after the ex-perience-we had at Home and the condition we were in, even after thirteen days at Newton Abbott, I would not expect the tei^m to be anything like as fit ns wo were. It is impossible to keep weight down on the boat. ,A man can keep his wind, but cannot 'keep down his weight."
