FINAL OF CHAMPIONSHIP • ..... , 1 . MANUKAU TO PLAY GRAFTON GAMES FOR JUBILEE TROPHY After a break of some weeks club Rugby will again be reverted to at Eden Park to-morrow, when Manukau will play Grafton in the final of the Auckland Rugby Union's senior championship. As both teams have proved evenly balanced an open and spectacular contest is anticipated. Jlanukau has not yet won the senior championship and its success would prove popular with local enthusiasts. It is also some seasons since Grafton was successful. Several representative players will be seen in action to-morrow and they, alone, should attract considerable interest. Tn the first round of the championship Grafton scored 11 points and. eight in the second round. Manukau scored 12 and seven respectively. Taking a line on this form the final should be very close. • In- addition to the final of the championship, matches for the Jubilee trophy will also b© plfcyed. l Collogo Rifles will meet University in the principal match at the Show Grounds and Technical Old Boys will play Grammar Old Boys a* a curtainraiser. At Western Springs Ponsonby will try conclusions with Eden. Lower grade competitions will be continued. Following ure the teams: — COLLEGE RIFLES Senior Grade.—Kirk.
