MEMBERS OF 1937 SPRINGBOKS TO PLAY AGAIN.—At the annual meeting of the Hamilton Rugby Club, Cape Town, it was learned that the club had gained several new "captures.” These include Fred Turner, the former Transvaal Springbok, Justus van der Spuy, the Stellenbosch and Western Province scrum-half, and George Osler. Turner was warmly welcomed and elected a member of the committee. The first team captain has not yet been chosen, but he is likely to be Gerry Brand once more. Gerry has definitely decided to turn out at full-back this season, and Turner will probably be one of the wings.
