RUGBY LEAGUE
SECOND TEST WON BY ENGLISHMEN (By Telegraph—Press Association) CHRISTCHURCH, 13th August. England won the second Rugby League Test, beating New Zealand by 25 to 14 in the presence of 7000 people. At no stage was the game very .exciting, for although New Zealand started off well and attacked consistently m the early part of the first spell the Englishmen still looked the more dangerous side, and in the second half clearly held the upper hand. At times it almost seemed as if they were taking things easily, for their passing, which was brilliant in flashes, was often careless and wild. Neither set of forwards showed a great deal of life, the New Zealand pack in particular being sluggish.
