EUGBY. The second round of flag; matches will commence to-morrow afternoon. The attraction at Carisbrook will be the match Alhambra v. University A. This is expected to prove a close and interesting game. Tho Alhambra have a real good forward division, and their backs are safe. The ground promises to be greasy, and this might ,ho a handicap to tho fast ’Varsity backs. Nevertheless, tho match should provide a fast, open game. At the Caledonian Ground Kaikorai will meet Zingori-Richniond, and this should also furnish a closoly-oontested game. At Tahuna No. 1 Pirates will meet University B, while Dunedin and Union! will meet on Tahuna No. 2 Southern will play Taieri Rovers at Mosgiel. SOCCER.
