In the. second half the "Auckland rearguard adopted different ; methods. After ■\ drawing 'the defence they short-kicked the ; ball, to the visitors' fullback. Fast ■ following up had him in difficulties, and before he could . receive support the ball was rushed' over the! line and three tries resulted, .which evened up the scores. ~ The last quarter was keenly - contested, the Auckland forwards eventually breaking through, and adding- the winning try. Eddowes, at fullback, and Griereoii, cental threee.uaxteT, played splendidly and it '. was mainly due to , them that ' Auckland ■ proved victorious.

THE SENIOR COMPETITIONS. -The senior competition of the Auckland Kugby Union was continued at Eden Park on Saturday afternoon. Grafton defeated Ponsonby by 20 points to 9, but the game . *«» a great deal more even than, the scores indicate. Grafton were leading by four points only at the interval, but in the concluding stages they rnore than held their own owing to the fact that their forwards were heavier and their backs developed more combination. Marist Brothers Old Boys defeated College Bifles by 14 points to 8 after a fast and interesting game. Grammar School had little difficulty in defeating Newton by 26 points to nil. The Newton backs wert* no match for.their more speedy rivals. The positions of the teams are:—Grafton J?, .points, Ponsonby 14, Grammar School Old Boys 13, Marist Brothers Old Boys 10, College Rifles 9, University 7. Newton 0. GRAFTON V. PONSONBY. Grafton attacked at the commencement but a penalty relieved. Grafton returned and Murray failed to take the ball, Bat as the result of a mark by Boss Ponsonby were enabled to ( clear. Boss then carried play to Graf home twonfty-fivfj., where he was stopped by Nixon, but from a passing msh which was started almost immediately Stretton got over. Prentice failed to convert. Foasopby maintained the pressure, but a free kick afforded Grafton relief Nixon then broke away, and, kicking down the field, recovered the ball and scored. Moore failed to con-vert. Good work by Lucas and Hobson had Grafton on the defensive and they were compelled to force. On changing oveT Grafton started a passing rush, ■which was suppressed by Lucas, who carried the ball to mid-field. Eighton had to retire on account of injuries to one of his shoulders Ponsonby again assumed the offensive but the Grafton forwards shifted play to' the centre, where Kingston gained possession near the twenty-five flag and potted a goal making the half-time score: Grafton 7 •' Ponsonby, 3. ' ' On resuming Ponsonby invaded their opponents' territory and a passing rush between Hobson, Lucas, Stewart and Stretton carried, play up to Grafton's line, where Doherty picked up and crossed. Prentice failed to convert. The Grafton forwards then attacked and Hansen gave Hickey an opening which almost ended in a try. Grafton continued to press and from a passing rush Wakerley got over. Moore failed to improve on the try. Another passing rueh saw Hickey ecore a try which Moore converted. Ponsonby then took a hand at attacking, and after Grafton had forced Ross set his backs in motion. Stewart scoring. Murray failed with the kick. On changing over Ponsonby were hard pressed, but hard kicking allowed them to force. A little later the Ponsonby forwards broke away, but were stopped by Nixon!, who returned the ball to Murray. The latter was collared before he could dispose of the ball, and a wild scramble near the line resulted in Wakerley crossing. Nixon converted, and the game ended: Grafton, 20; Ponsonby, 9. Mr. A. Wetherilt was referee, a MARISTS V. COLLEGE RIFLES. Marist Brothers carried the ball to College Rifles' twenty-five at the commencement. Offside play by Barker gave O'Brien a. shot at goal, the ball striking one of the posts. Marist Brothers continued to press, and Peters broke through from the ruck, scoring a good try. Singe failed to convert. Peters again ran' through a /little later and passed to Thomas, who was brought down within a yard of the line, and College cleared.

The meeting between Newton and City was expected to produce'a close contest, but in order to place a full team in the field ' City had to play several juniors. This en- . hanced the prospects of Newton, particularly , as the latter had an exceptionally strong i side. The game was somewhat remarkable inasmuch as, - favoured with the wind in the first spell, Newton could only manage to score 5 points against 5' points by City, ) The second spell had not long commenced, < however, when Newton began to manifest I superior combination, and rapidly increased { their points to 11 by means of tries gained ■, in quick succession. The City team was not ' outclassed, and frequently looked dangerous, . but it had not the scoring ability of New- j ton, and fa|]e<l to add to its score. > Newton were placed on the attack soon ; after, the start through a long kick by , Dufty, who found the line near the corner, i The City forwards cleared, with a good rush and a penalty against" Newton further : improved matter for City. Good kicking by Dufty again placed Newton in a good position, but Laing broke through with a nice straight dash, and play was transferred to the Newton twenty-five. W. Davidson had » shot at goal from a penalty, but kicked a poster. The Newton forwards took play to the City twenty-five, where City were penalised and Dufty kicked a goal. Play hung in midfield for a time till Wetherall broke away for City, and a good passing dash looked dangerous. A hard kick sent the ball out of play behind the line. Immediately after the drop out Newton attacked, and Cloke, following up fast. ; scored a try. Dufty failed with the kick, j The next notable . piece of play was a good ! passing run by City. Laing made the open- i ing and passed to W. Davidson. The latter '■ transferred to B. Davidson, who was thrown ; into touch near the Newton line. Newton j rushed the ball back to the centre, where play hung till with a good passing run the City backs invaded Newton territory. From loose play near the line Wetherall obtained possession and scored. W. Davidson converted j just as the bell rang for half-time, making j the score Newton, 5; City, 5. _ i Immediately after resuming . Newton started a passing rush, the ball going along a chain to Lcvett, who scored near the corner. Dufty failed with the kick. City retaliated, and good combined work saw : Bllston almost over at the corner. A passing run by the Newton backs took play down field and tho ball went into touch at the City twenty-five. A penalty gave relief, but a good passing bout by the Newton backs . a?ain threatened danger. A good tackle by j W. Davidson stemmed the rush, and City 1 turned defence into attack by a good for- i ward rush. A passing dash by Paki and Wetherall saw the latter crowded into touch near the Newton line. Hard kicking by City compelled Newton to force twice in succession. A period of give-and-take play ensued till Newton broke away to the City twenty-five. From loose play Delaney secured the ball and dodged over. Dufty failed to convert. Soon afterwards Dufty ' had an effective shot at goal from a, penalty. A City rush took play to Newton twenty-five, but before the attack could be pushed home the Newton forwards cleared. Another City rush saw the ball kicked too hard over the line, a force resulting. • Play was quickly transferred to City quarters, a • Newton forward rush sending the ball over the line, a try resulting. Somers converted. Newton kept up the pressure till Wetherall, Mitchell, and Davidson broke away and car- ' ried play to Newton quarters. A score seemed certain, but Mitchell . was stopped on the line. Play was soon back in City quarters and from loose play Poison dodged over and scored behind the posts. He failed with the kick, and the bell rang with the scores: Newton, 19; City, 5, MARITIME V. PONSONBY. On. the form displayed in the club competitions this season Maritime ' were) popularly held to have rather an easy win in sight against Ponßonby. This opinion was hardly borne out by the result of the game. Had Ponsonby been able to place in the field the. team that represented the club on the previous Saturday in the Thacker Challenge Shield match popular opinion might have been still further astray. As matters turned out, however, a number of juniors had to be substituted for older players, and the game was sufficiently well contested

North'cote accounted for North Shore by 1 goal to 0, Ponsonby defeated Y:M.C.A. 'by 4 . goals to 3. and Brotherhood beat Kohimarama, at xiichmoad, by 3 goals to 2. ; ;•"'»■■ ■.■■->'■ < . NORTHCOTE \. NORTH SHORE." The fast and clever Northobte team outplayed North Shore, and the .one goal they won by might easily have been four with a little mote luck. North Shore *ere inclined to individualise and relied too much on short passing when their play should have been long and reverse passing. .King scored tor the winners, while other prominent pl *? were Craxton, the goalkeeper, Colvin, and Tremam. Dacre brothers and McAneay were most conspicuous for North Shore. I PONSONBY \. Y.M.CA. At the commencement Ponsonby, 8s With!' Innes in the van, carried play to Y.M.C.A.'s territory, and eventually the ball was kicked behind. Y.M.C.A. then made a fine combined effort. Wallworth stopping the movement.
