Both teams played with great vigour in the second spell, and Payne, from n free kick, goalcti for Jlarlboroiigh. Gilbert potted a goal for Buller, and G-rcei scored an unconverted try.
The Buller forwards were a great pack, dominating the game. Goodall . and M'Cabc were outstanding. In the backs, Seandrett and Jones were particularly sound.
The Marlborongh f6r.wiivds played a good sparkling game, the pick being Putchctt, Bothain, and Sathcrley, who were particularly prominent. In the back division Potete, Roberts, and Bnrtlutt were most noticeable.
Duller was undoubtedly the better team and gave v much more impressive display than against West Coast last week. -Mr. Empson (Christchurch) ably controlled the game.
