AUSTRALIAN TOURING TEAM DRAW AGAINST AUCKLAND. (Peb United Press Association) AUCKLAND, September 15. On a ground which suited the visitors the Australian hockey team drew with Auckland in a keenly contested game. Auckland was superior in the first half, establishing a lead of two goals to nil at half time. Australia recovered and shortly before time was leading by three goals to two when Auckland scored on the call of time. Auckland's goals in the first spell came from E. Watts and Robertson, who scored in quick succession. Australia replied with spasmodic attacks which failed through lack of combination. Milner scored for Australia early in the second half, and after a sustained attack Rothwell ran in following a penalty corner. ' After saving several shots the Auckland goalkeeper was beaten by a high ball from Penman. E. Watts scored Auckland's final goal from a corner.
