ALL BLACKS’ TOUR
PREPARING FQR SATURDAY’S MATCH United Pi ess Association—By Electric Telegraph —Copyright LONDON, December 3, It is almost certain that New Zealanders playing against Ireland will be:—Gilbert, Mitchell, Oliver, Hart, Caughey, Griffiths, Sadler, Lambourn, Hadley, Dalton, McKenzie, Reid, King, Manchester and Mahoney. Griffiths is still suffering from a bruised leg but is expected to be fit by Saturday and there is a possibility of Pepper playing, though he has a heavy cold, but he may be preferred to Dalton. The players are having a quiet week at Dublin, most of them feeling the extreme cold. All were presented with expensive Irish linen handkerchiefs and many have found it necessary to buy extra trunks and suitcases to hold the souvenirs received in all parts of Britain. Mahoney is the souvenir king, and his collection includes 15 jerseys, 20 club ties and dozens of badges.
