DOMINION SURPRISE
SUGGESTED RUGBY TOURS NO OVERTURES BY N.SAV. (Per Press Association.) WELLINGTON, this day. It comes as surprising news to the Rugby authorities in New Zealand that the New South Wales Rugby Union, according to a statement by its secretary, is expecting an interchange of visits between Australia and New Zealand this year. “No representations have been made to or by New Zealand in regard to a tour,” said Mr. S. S. Dean, chairman of the New Zealand Rugby Union. “The general opinion of the council at its last meeting seemed to be that these tours should be postponed for the duration of the war.”
