HOCKEY TOURISTS WIN AGAIN

DEFEAT OF TOOWOOMBA. FOUR GOALS TO NIL. (United Pres 3 Association —By Electric Telegraph Copyright.) TOOWOOMBA, July 27. In the third match of the Australian tour to-day the New Zealand hockey team defeated Toowoomba by four goals to nil. New Zealand won the toss and attacked vigorously till Toowoomba cleared, lack of support spoiling their chance. Again attacking, New Zealand forced a penalty corner, but failed to score. Clark was showing great stick work in the face of much opposition.

New Zealand’s brilliant play overcame a Toowoomba counter-attack, en- . abling the forwards to assault the goal vigorously, Bay scoring. A ding-dong battle continued till half-time.

New Zealand were again to the fore till a clearance by Perry took Toowoomba to the New Zealand circle, lack of cohesion preventing a score. Again New Zealand attacked, and despite Emmerson’s wonderful defence Bay again broke through and scored'. Continuing the offensive New Zealand pressed round the goal, Welbourne scoring. Toowoomba carried the ball to the New Zealand circle, two shots at goal miscarrying. Wellbourne cleared, forcing Toowoomba back to ' their own circle. Emmerson, however, was too good on defence till Regers scored cleverly a minute before time.

Andrews, Clark, Bay and Wellbourne were the outstanding players: The teams were: New Zealand. —Moore, Andrews, Parker, Clark, Joblin (captain), Bollard, Rogers, Best, Bay, Turbitt r Wellbourne.

Toowoomba. —Emmerson, Andrews, I. Perry, Vagg, Mclntyre, Catfield, J. Perry, Adamson, Curran, Caldwell, Reithmuller.
