WOMEN’S HOCKEY
The three women’s matches were all keenly contested, and a high standard of play was shown in all, Otago and Momona appeared in the early stages to be well matched, and, though the final score was 8 goals to 0 in favour of Otago, it did not appear at any time that the winning side was superior in such a degree to the losers. Kings and University played an excellent game, which became considerably better as it progressed. At the start both sides lacked cohesion, but the latter stages of the game produced, excellent hockey-. University was the better side and deserved its win by 3 goals to 1. _ ; Dunedin beat Training College by 3 goals to 1 in a match which was not lacking in interest. The College team showed a considerable improvement on the form of the previous Saturday, but Dunedin was keen, and allowed, few opportunities to pass.
