S. BRICE, captain (Petone). H. M. M’GIRR (Hutt). J. S. HIDDLESTONE (Wellington) . C. S. DEMPSTER (Institute). F. T. BADCOCK (Wellington). D. C. COLLINS (Old Bovs). H. LAMBERT (Old Bovs). M. HENDERSON (Y.MU.A.). K. C. JAMES (Old Boys). A. M. HOLLINGS (Varsity). W. A. BAKER (Midland). D. PATRICK (Midland).
