TE WERA NOTES.

[FROM Ot'U OWN CORRESPONDENT.] A foot))all inatcli was play V-d at Toko iast Saturday between teams repre- i ;enting Toko and Strathmore coinnined against Whiinga and Kohuratahij tiie idea of which was to pick -.t team j-opre.sonting.tln' Eastern SubUnion to play Stratford Seniors next Thursday, at Stratford. The result was a d;w\ *no of the match are, 1 understand, to be devoted to assist the candidature ,ot Miss Hignett, the sports representative, in the Carnival Queen contest, i'lie following is the personnel of the team selected: Cheer (Toko;, Coul- I ton (Strathmore), Court (Whanga), Priest (Whanga), Stewart (Strathmore), Hodder (KoTiuratahi), Little j (Whanga), Wiles (Strathmore), liev ell (Whanga), West (Stratnmore), Seeley (Whanga), Hodson (Strathmore:), and Welsh • (Kohuratahi).. Emergencies: Backs, Loos (Kohuraahi), Summerhayos (Strathmore) ; forwards, iuir.patrick (Toko) and Cleiand (Kohuratahi). The above team should give a good ..count of themselves, but personally I am of opinion that the Sub Union j nr-o taking a rather big order in play- ■ ing Stratford, and it would Jiave boon j more lit ting had they decided to play I rlio Wairoa Sub Union, as was origin- < ally intended. Apparently the team j ivas picked from those, actually play- j ing last Saturday, as a few of our j best v.-pvo unable to get away, namely i iirown, Walsh and Higgijison. Tho ' first named is an excellent back, and I has been a Taranaki "T" rep, besides liavisig played some wondej'ful games j this present season, and it is rather j disappointing that he was not picked, i von despite the fact of his inability t.i get to Toko to show the selectors la little of his prowess with the j Heather: i Although Strathmore has won the .Masters shield, it lias not as yet come I to haiuhjhe shield has boon on view | jin Stratford for some time, and we j jaro looking forward to handling it i • any clay. The To Worn, hall is lining renova- I kd, and the re-opening will be reie- | bra-ted by a ball given by the East jßoacl Sheep l)yg. Trial Club. After [this event,;'the Strathmore Kootball 'Club i;'ii"'i ; ! holding a dance, and at ,:> later date, the committee in sup- I Iport of Miss Meredith's, candidature \ ■in the Carnival Queon contest, ,nre !
