COMING INFLUX
THIRD RUGBY TEST RUSH FOR ACCOMMODATION MANY HOTELS FULLY BOOKED, *— ■ ■ Although the third test match between the Springboks and the All Blacks at Auckland is more than four •weeks distant, all the accommodation in many Auckland hotels has been booked for a month past, and in some cases for two months. In some hotels even shakedowns and beds made up in the lounges are already bespoken. Everything points to. a'p even larger influx than that for the opening- match of the tour, and bookiugs from Wellington are particularly heavy. ' So far most of the demand has been upon licensed hotels in the city and nearer suburbs. Private hotels, especially those catering largely for permanent boarders, still have vacancies, and it cannot be said that all the available accommodation has been booked by any means. However, it is certain that intending visitors will jestend 1 their search in the coming" weeks; ; and 'those who delay stand a good chance of being shut out or having to conduct a long and weary hunt for a bed.
