MANAGEMENT OF THE GAME. DEPUTATION FROM CLUBS. ELLERSLIE-MANGERE DISPUTE. A deputation from all nflilialec] senior clubs waited upon the management committee of Hie Auckland Rugby League last evening and stressed the point that clubs and players under the present constitution of tho leagi e had no communication with the governing body, and it asked for a revision of representation on tho committee of management. Several speakers of the delegation said the clubs were not satisfied with the mengro reports of the workings of the League and they were really isolated. Mr. W. .T. Probert said every consideration should be given the clubs, which lie was sure had tho best interests of the game at heart. After discussion the matter was deferred for consideration. The chairman reported a satisfactory settlement in tho dispute between the Mangere and Ellerslio Clubs. 1 lie Maori i senior team, he said, was willing to continue I playing the League code. It was intended i that -Mangere should apply for the resignaI tion of its players who had already played j for Ellerslio. The suggestion that the matt ter be deferred for one week was agreed ! to.
