NEW ZEALAND RUGBY UNION
Wellington, Tuesday. The statements of the Canterbury Rugby Union as to the false and misleading character of the Press Association telegrams from Wellington respecting football matters are quite unfounded, and betray either great carelessness or great ignorance on the part of the Union's officials. Three charges are made in the letter published in Ohristchurch papers of Monday. The first has to do with .statements in the New Zealand Rugby Union's annual report, which are fathered on to the Association, though the latter is in no way responsible for them. The second ascribes to the Association a message which was not sent by it at all. The third is a trivial matter about inter-College matches. There is no foundation whatever for epithets applied by the Canterbury Rugby Union to the Association.
