A mixed foursomes competition will be played on the afternoon of the 19th, commenc--ing at 1.30 p.m. The draw will be arranged at the clubhouse. All members are urged to participate in this competition. MAORI RUGBY The Huia Football Club will defend the Mako Cop, which they won from Katana last year, against a challenge from the Hukaroa Club (Ohakune) today (Thursday). The matih will be played on the Oval Domain, Taihape, commencing at 2.30 p.m., and should attract a large number of spectators. The challengers are a strong team as will be realised when it is mentioned that they have such a big lead in the Ruapehu Rugby Union’s competition that although the second of the three rounds of the competition has been only half completed, a win or a draw any time between now and the end of the third round will give them the championship honours for 1932. They won the seven-a-side tourTheir team includes the three Haitana brothers, who are noted in the Ruapehu district for their outstanding ability. Two of them were seen in action in Taihape not long ago and created a most favourable impression. Huia intend to make a great bid to hold the Mako Cup, and a most interesting game is assured. The Huia team will line out as follows: —T. Chase, Pikari, C. Bennett, Hekenui, Rauhina, Kingi, Raukawa, Whai Pine (capt.), Wm. Pine, Scanlon, Murphy, Nicholls, Wilson, Hunter, Ropata. MAJESTIC THEATRE “MOTHER’S MILLIONS” “Mother’s Millions” which will be screened at the Majestic this afternoon (Thursday), and this evening and to-morrow evening at 8 p.m., strikes a new note in talkie entertainment and will give you a new slant on life as it brings you one of the grandest hour’s enjoyment you have ever experienced. It deals with the story of a rich woman who could buy anything—everything but love, and is bristling with laughs, thrills, romance and drama. The mother in 1 ‘Mother’s Millions” has two children. She is a very wealthy woman. The world thinks that she is concerned only with the amassing of wealth, but her major concerns were her two children, her boy and her girl. She wanted to guard her daughter from fortune hunters; she wanted to makke it possible for her to meet and fall in love with the right man. For her son she strove in every way to make him selfreliant. Though her means seemed at the time to be utterly cruel, utterly heartless, utterly unmaternal, they were dramatic and they served to bring into focus the tremendous mother love in this woman who dressed Tike Tenth Avenue and who talned like a Bowery politician. You will like this wolf woman. You have never seen anything like her on the screen, but she is real, vital and tremendously interesting. And I am sure you will like the fine group of young picture players who appear with me in “Mother’s Millions”—James Hall. Lawrence Gray, Frances Dade and Elinor Flinn.
