Dob-on, who are set down to plax Blackball, should |>e equal to beating them. In lhe fourth grade, Cobden A will meet Tech. P>. and should still remain undefea led. The same also applies Id Greymouth A. who will bo playing Cobden B. Tech. A. shouTl also gather two points al lhe expense of Gre\mouth B.
