N.Z. CRICKET COUNCIL.
(Per Press Association.) CHRISTCHURCCH, January 30. At a meeting of the management committee of the New Zealand Cricket Council it was decided to advise the Otago Association to get into touch with the officer commanding the district to see if military parades could not be arranged so as to allow’ young players to take part in matches on Saturdays. It was agreed that Manawatu should enter into negotiations with Poverty Bay for a date for a match for the Hawke Cup, and advise it that it had the right to inscribe its name on the Heathcote Williams Shield. The chairman (Mr F. C. Raphael) referred to the loss felt by cricketers at the death of Lord Plunket, and moved that a letter be forwarded to Lady Plunket expressing the Council’s heartfelt and sincere sympathy with her and the members of her family in their irreparable loss. The motion was carried.
At a meeting of delegates to the Council it was decided not to play a North v. South Island match this year.
