per edge of sticks an edging of some material other than metal with the object of producing a stick of greater endurance. Advice to this effect was received by the New Zealand Hockey Association last week from the International Hockey Board. The board’s letter set out that it was essential that in any of the new type of stick the edging should be securely attached to the head of the stick. The alteration also legalised insets in the extremity. It had been decided that the type of stick with the extremity cut back was not legal and that certain other makes with the extremity cut square were also contrary to the rules. The extremity had to be sufficiently rounded off to have rounded edges.
