To-morrow's Contest.

CITY V. CITY NORTH

The football fixture for to-morrow afternoon, City v. City North, should be the means of inducing a large number to be present at Farawai. Judging by the very exciting game that was played by these teams when last they met, on which occa sion City were victorious by 9 points to 7, another interesting match may be expected. Both districts are bound to be well represented gs a win for the City would give that district a good mortgage on the cups, whereas if City North are successful, the senior competition will be as open as ever. The match will be started shortly after 3 o'clock, and players are requested to bear this strictly in mind. Messrs Corbett and Twohill have decided to ask Mr J. Christie to officiate as referee, a position in which that gentleman is highly respected by all footballers, his decisions giving every satisfaction. The members of the City team will play in all blue jersey the white SF.sh having been discarded.

The following are the names of the players:—

CITY (Blue).
