TO-DAY'S RUGBY

This afternoon there will be only one senior game in Palmerston North, when Kia Ton and Feilding will meet on the oval. Tho issue is difficult to forscc, ns both teams have so far been inconsistent in their form. The double blues, weakened b,v casualties, will be up against a strong combination in the amber and blacks, who despite their ragged showing against Woodville last Saturday, arc capable of big things. At Feilding, Athletic will meet Fcifiling Old Boys and here again uncertainty will attend the meeting of these two surprise packets from last Saturday. Woodville also will have a senior game, when the home team will meet Old Boys. On the oval at the Showgrounds, the curtain raiser will be provided by Old Boys A and Bunnythorpe, two of the leaders in the junior competition. Early corners will be well catered for, as in addition to the curtain raiser two other junior games will be played at 1.30 p.ru.
