STAG TROPHY RUGBY

FIXTURES FOR TO-MORROW FRANKTON MEET TE AWAMUTU. MAHIST AND BLUES MATCHED. ! , j j After the upsets in last week's Stag ; Trophv Rugby series interest in tomorrow’s fixtures should be intense when two big games are scheduled for headquarters. The major attraction at No. 1 Rugby Park will be the meeting of Frankton and Te Awamutu, while Marist and Cambridge Blues will try conclusions at No. 2 Rugby Park. After. Frankton’s surprise defeat at the hands of Stars last Saturday they will be keen to rehabilitate them- ! selves In the eyes of their supporters : when they take the field against Te Awamutu, who last week had a bye. The meeting should provide interest- : ing Rugby and the tussle for supre- j macy will be keen. Cambridge Blues, one of the best j teams in this year’s series, also had i a setback last Saturday, while their | opponents this week, Marist, held the | championship leaders, Technical Old . Boys, well in hand. Although Marist will have a difficult project In de- | feating Blues, they can be relied upon , to offer stout resistance to the visit- j ors. Both teams will be strongest j In the forwards, and the duel between the two packs is expected to be lively. Other interesting Stag Trophy games are scheduled for the other i centres.
