RUGBY FOOTBALL

TO-MORROW’S CUP MATCHES THREE GAMES IN HASTINGS. IMPORTANT CLASH AT NAPIER. Again Hastings Rugby fans have a treat in store for them. To-morrow three senior matches will be played at Nelson Park, Hastings, while Napier have the important clash between the hitherto undefeated teams, Napier Old Boys and Hastings, to attract their attention at McLean Park.* Early arrivals at Nelson Park should find the Celtic v. Tamatea game full of action. This is scheduled to commence at 1.20 o’clock. It will be followed by two very promising struggles. Hastings Old Boys are to meet Technical OJd Boys and both teams are very even in strength; consequently, anything might happen and fans will be hard put to decide who will be the victors. On the other arena at 2.45 p.m. M.A.C., fresh from their success of last Saturday, will meet Pirates. Here again the unepected might happen. Each side possesses fast, nippy backs, so the play should be open and interesting. There will be the usual good junior matches so that an unusually fine programme is provided.
