DECISIVE VICTORY
R.N.Z.A.F. Rugby Team
LONDON. December 14
The Royal New Zealand Air Force Rugby team beat Guys Hospital by 17 points to 5 yesterday. The New Zealanders shaped well from the, start. Guy’s teamwork suffered from the absence of 10 of their regular players.
Tomoana. scrum-half, opened out the ime in clever style and only faulty
handling by the backs prevented an even more decisive New Zealand victory. Guys for some time defended strongly but the New Zealanders, who
followed up smartly, were alway stronger in attack.
The New Zealand team was: Pilot Officer Kjssell. fullback; Pilot Officer Grand and Sergeants Fulton and Sutherland.. three-quarters; Sergeant Weter and Pilot Officer Ellis, five-eighths;
Sergeant Tomoana, half-back; Pilot Officers Knight and Cox. Sergeant Wells, Sanson. Blonifleld, McCloy, and Goulding and Pilot Officer Farren forrds.
