UNMISTAKABLE SUPREMACY OPPONENTS BEWILDERED By Telegraph— Press Association—Copyright < Received October 23, 8 p.m.) LONDON, Oct. 27 The special correspondent of the United Press Association states that the All Blacks were guests at a Mayoral banquet in the Cardiff Municipal Buildings, which were floodlit in honour of the occasion. The team received many messages of congratulation upon its improvement. Llanelly and Cardiff critics agree that the New Zealanders showed unmistakable supremacy. The Observer declares that their finish and judgment were superior to anything previously exhibited. The Sunday Times says: —The All Blacks' brilliance bewildered their opponents.
