COMMENCEMENT TODAY
SYDNEY, December 5.

' The team, has been booked to sail for New Zealand by the Wanganella next Thursday, but if the strike continues other arrangements will have to be made.
.The captain (E. R. T. Holmes), interviewed, said that several of the players entertained hopes that they would return next year as members of the English Test team.
