THE ALL BLACKS
AUSTRALIAN TOUR TEAM ASSEMBLED N. BALL REPLACES G. HART (Per United Press Association.) Wellington, June 14. The New Zealand Rugby team for the Australian tour assembled in Wellington to-day, most of the members having arrived this morning. Through a mishap in a club match on Saturday, the team is not likely to have the services of G. F. Hart, selected for the tour. Hart had a bone in his shoulder fractured on Saturday and after an examination it was thought the injury would not prevent him from being fit for play in about a fortnight. On the strength of this he was ordered to come to Wellington with the other members of the team. A further medical examination of the injured shoulder was carried out to-day and it is unde :tood that as a result little prospect is held out for Hart being properly fit for play for some weeks. N. Ball (Wellington) received advice that he had been included in the New Zealand team and Hart remains behind for treatment and there is a possibility that in the event of his being fit in time to join the New Zealand team for some of its matches, he may be sent to Australia.
