THE ALL BLACKS.
TEAM REACHES VANCOUVER. ENJOYMENT OF WINTER SPORTS. VANCOUVER, January 23. Bearing marks of strenuous winter sports which they enjoyed on the way across Canada, twenty-nine of the All Blacks arrived this evening and will play here on Saturday. Solomon is sporting two black eyes sustained in a collision on a toboggan slide at Montreal. All are in good condition. A civic dinner reception will be tendered on Saturday. TEAM FIT AND WELL. (Received Friday, 11.54 p.m.) VANCOUVER, January 24. The All Blacks arrived physically fit for the three games with British Columbia teams. The players did not like the forty below zero weather encountered on the prairies during the four-day trans-Canada train trip, but alighted during the stops for snowball fights and other exercise.
