FOOTBALLER'S DEPARTURE
(Speolal to "The EvcnJnfl Post.") MASTERTON, Thia Day. Followers of Rugby football throughout the-Wairarapa will learn with regret at the impending departure from the district of Fred Fuller, the brilliant young Greytown and Wairarapa representative three-quarter. Mr, Fuller, ■who is an exchange clerk at the Martin■borough Post Office, received word on Saturday morning of hia transfer to Eastbourne. He expects to take up his new duties at the end of the week. Mr. Fuller's departure will be a severe loss to Wairarapa football, both club and representative. A player of well above average ability, he is in addition an excellent place-kick, and his boot has proved a deciding factor in many of Wairarapa's representative games in the past two seasons, notably tho Banfurly Shield match with Auckland last year and the recent Hawkes Bay game when he notched 22 points. To date this season Mr. Fuller has scored 247 points in representative and club matches —some-, thing of a record. In conversation with I a. Press representative, Mr. Fuller said he very much regretted his impending departure from the district. He also said he would probably join the Eastbourne Club.
