ALL BLACK SIDE
CHANGES ANNOUNCED. CONSIDERATION FOR TEST. (United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright.) Received August 6, 1.25 p.m. SYDNEY, Aug. 6. Lilburne will captain the All Blacks in their game with New South Wales to-day, which is being played on the show ground commencing at 3.15. Hart has a slightly swollen ankle and will be replaced by Bullock-Doug-las. Kilby injured a leg early in the second spell on Saturday. The injuries to both Hart and Kilby are responding satisfactorily to treatment. The reason for so many changes in the New Zealand team as compared with that which took the field on Saturday is that the selectors desire to see every man in action before commencing the consideration of the Test team. No doubt the New South Wales selectors hud the same object in view in making changes in their own team. To-day is a bank holiday and the weather is brilliantly fine, with a slight breeze. The New Zealanders were entertained at Pittswater yesterday by the Manly Club. A relay race for a cup was won by the New Zealand team, consisting of Bullock-Douglas, Holder, Caughey, and Smith, and the All Blacks gained fust, second, and third places in the shot put, McKenzie winning a silver cup with 37ft 4in, Barry putting 36ft lOin, and Caughey 36tt fin.
