SUCCESS ON TOUR
INDOOR BASKETBALL TEAM The touring Dunedin Taxes indoor basketball team, which is playing branch offices in various parts of New Zealand, has won its first two games, Christchurch being defated by 25—21 and Napier by 27—16. The game against Christchurch was fast and exciting, especially towards the end when Christchurch was leading by one point, with only four minutes to play. G. Baines (Dunedin) was outstanding in de--fence. The deciding factor in the Napier game was the superior fitness of the Dunedin team. The Dunedin team is now sightseeing at Wairakei and Rotorua. On Saturday is will meet a strong Auckland side.
