Following team has ' teen selected to represent Cantenttjury m the match \pith the persons from Uncle Sam's country who remark, "vGive 'em t-he axe" :— Pull, A. E. Doeil ; Tbreeiffuarters, F. C. Fryer, W. B. Fuller, W. IMitiehell ; fiveeigtabs, G. D. Gray, J. Weeton ; half, P. Btßrns ; " forwards, H. iMEurray (wing), H. Luke, J. Mahoney, T. Bain, W. Menzies, C. Humpfrsles, A. E. ShadSsoH, and. B. Meadows. Emer®encies-r-Forward, C. Evans, G. jWebb ; back, C Hutcirings. The selection is remarlfiatele^cmcipally for the omiißsion of Cleary, who bas been playing brilliantly, and certajnly .merited inclusion. He isn't even emergency. To putiilim m wouW prob&ibay nvean the shelving af Joe Weston, who at five-eighth lacfes the brilliance of the younger man. It is probable that ton's pbanomenal goal-gejtttng performances strem^biiened the desire to retain the Buinsj-Gray-Weston com^nation, put it's rou^h on Clear y. A smart man lihe Cade is also bumped out. Hither could have been included, and Weston might have, been retained tjy making full-back Doell stand aside. -Although safe, ttiere is a slowiiess about Doell's •mowemßnts sometimes, and atiWck tbreeasaarter; would fill the Mil more satisfactorily. If Fuller went SulHaack (a la Walla«e m BritfatinO Dolly Gray could piav centaeJflKPee-^uartac and Cteary five^eighth. A*! present a ho&e note of: in£ezxog£ttSofi stands in' froa* oi the -team.. '
