AMENDED RUGBY RULES
REQUEST FROM AUCKLAND
The following resolution, moved by Mr. A. J. Billington, was carried at the meeting of the management committee of the Auckland Rugby Union last evening:—"That the Auckland Rugby Union appreciates the earnest consideration whic-h the New Zealand Union has always given to the representations made from Auckland with reference to the playing of what is known as 'amended rules' and respects the lovaity to New Zealand's affiliation to the Rugby Football Union which lias, with other reasons, prevented the New Zealand Union from accepting the view that the playing of 'amended rules' should bo permitted. This union, however, believes that the interests of Rugby football in Auckland would be best served if the Auckland Union were permitted to play the amended kick-into-touch rules in the club competitions controlled by it." It was Resolved to forward a copy of the resolution to the New Zealand Union.
