QUAKE FUND SUFFERS
RAIN AT WELLINGTON “CHARITY DAY’’ SPOILED Press Association WELLINGTON, Today. Wellington had been fortunate in its week-ends this winter until Saturday. This was Charity Day, and all receipts from sports were to go principally to the Earthquake Fund. The worst weather of the winter chose this particular date to make its appearance, and all games had to be played in a • lown pour of rain on fields so waterlogged that even the ambulance men were at times sprawling full length in muddy pools. Instead of some hundreds of pounds going to the fund, probably not even expenses will be covered.
