TO-MORROW'S FOOTBALL

RUGBY Two interesting games will be played at Carisbrook. At 3 University A. will, meet Kaikorai, For. some years now this match has always provided one of the best games of the season. While Kaikorai has not so far played up to expectations, the team is always at its best against University A. The latter side has shown considerable improvement since the commencement of the season, and its backs appear to be a much stronger combination than at the start of the season. The curtainraiser will bo the match between Pirates and Dunedin. The former has shown good football so far this season. The forwards, perhaps a little on the light side, display plenty of dash, while the backs are capable of giving a, good exhibition. Dunedin is a much improved side, the forwards particularly putting plenty of vim into their play, while the backs are also capable, of playing a good game. At Tahuna Park Union will meet Ziugari-Richmond, and on the University Oval Alhambra will meet University B. Taieri residents should witness a good game on the Mosgiel Recreation Ground between Southern and Taieri. Southern has a good side both back and forward, while Taieri has a strong forward pack.
