“SPORTING LIFE” PRAISES N.Z. RUGBY UNION.
(United. Press Assn.—By Electric Telegraph.—Copyright.) LONDON, May 16. “ Sporting Life ” congratulates the New Zealand Rugby Union on the manner in which it received the International Board’s intimation that no British team would be visiting New Zealand in 1930. The paper welcomes the sportsmanlike and statesmanlike action of the English Rugby Union in accepting the invitation to visit New Zealand and comments on the prospects of periodical visits by the All Blacks. “ There are many reasons why Continental countries are not admitted to fellowship with the Home unions, but these certainly do not apply to tho dominions, who are as keenly anxious for the future of the game as ourselves.”—Australian Press Association-United Service . _____ '
