Since the last notes were written the Club's record has slumped a good deal, for, although on June 19th. six out of eight matches were won, on June 26th six more were lost, and on July 3rd, the only game played, the Senior A was lost.

The Seniors, after giving a first class display to' beat St. Pat's O.B. were unlucky to lose 14 to 12 to Petone, and were beaten 11 to 0 by Wellington in the mud.

Junior A soundly defealed Te Aroha, and then lost inexplicably to Wellington.

Junior B gave an improved display to beat Wellington but lost to the competition leaders last Saturday.

Third A and B continue to hold their position near the top of the grade, each having won their last two matches fairly comfortably. The third A's( with 16 points are second, two points behind the leaders in their grade, and the third B's with 15 are third, one point behind the leaders.
