NOTHING BUT THE BEST FOR VISITING ALL BLACKS
(Bee. noon.) SYDNEY, May 16. The opening match on June 4 of the New. Zealand Rugby Union tour of Australia may not be played at Canberra as scheduled, because the New South Wales Rugby Union is not satisfied with the arrangements made in Canberra for the tourists. “ The accommodation and entertainment for the New Zealanders are far below what we expected of Canberra,” said an executive official. “ Nothing but the best will do for the visitors.” If the union authorities at Canberra do not quickly revise their programme the match .will be transferred to Armidale. The AlHHacks would then open their tour against New England.
