The final selection of the team to meet the Englishmen will not necessarily be made from this list of players. It is imperative, however, that the chosen players attend the practices punctually and regularly. A register will be kept of attendances at the practices, which will be in charge of H. M. M'Girr, with the selector also present to study the form of players. Another preliminary to the big match will, be the Town v. Country match, to be play-' ed next' Friday and Saturday at the Basin Reserve.
