The New Zcalnnder has already 34 points to his credit this season, and is selected to represent his adopted county at Maryport next Saturday. Rosenfeld has ■snorud 24 points, his "most successful came of the season being in the cuptie against Hull Kingston Rovers.

Thenbacks a ? fast and quit? promising, but tho forwards lack weight and experiProbably tho most important item in the Northern Union deliberations was that which concerned the proposed tour. The final decision was postponed. But several w"ho were last season oppossd to the visit now admit that the fituation in Australia and New Zealand is so promising that a tour noxt reason is opportune.
