Change In British Team
PA GREYMOUTH, May 15. One change has been made in the British Isles team to play the West Coast at Greymouth tomorrow. J. E. Nelson, the lock forward, is suffering from a slightly pulled muscle in the knee and will be replaced by D. Hayward. The weather prospects are not bright for the game, the first heavy rain for a fortnight falling today, but conditions improved. When the team manager, Surgeon-captain Osborne, expressed himself as very pleased with the springy turf at the park, he added that a similar surface tomorrow would suit the team admirably. The team is: Cleaver, Thomas, Williams. Henderson, Jones, Kyle, Willis, Roberts, McCarthy, Kininmonth, John, Hayward, Budge, Dai Davies, Clifford. Williams will captain the side.
