FOOTBALL.
The three matches played by the New Zealand learn of 1897 in Sydney produced gates of £910, j£74o and Jt'97o, It is anticipated that ibe gates from ihe approaching mutcties with the New Zealand team of 1903 will yield least £1000 each or more.
Wellington College boys will (says Wollingcon Post) regret lo learn that VV. tt. Parkinsou, for several yeurs in the fifteeu, and captain last 3 ear, met with a painful accident at the opening of the season in Dunedin. He had been given a place in the 'Varsity seniors, and within len rainu'es of the starling of his first match had a knee put out. He is laid aside certainly for the season, and it is doubtful whether he will be able to don the jersey again. Young Parkinson waa also a promising- sprinter, and won both ih'e challenge cups at the collegp.
The following are the correct positions of ihe first round (seniors) : —
Hawera Opunake Wai mate
Wins. Drawß. Losses. Pis. ...4 0 0 8 ...2 1 1 5 ... '2 0 2 4 ...10 3 2 ...0 1 3 1
