Soccer

Last week the Seniors gave a very creditable performance by beating the hitherto unbeaten Tech. O.B. team by 5-3. The recovery of the team has been rather late and the Tech. O.B. team will now attain Senior A status. Congratulations to Sutton-Smith, Jack Walls, Ken Johnstone, John Stone and Mick Spiers for being selected to represent Wellington against Wanganui on August 14th. The exclusion of Colin Richardson, our star centre half, came as a surprise to all who have watched this clever exponent of the round-ball code in action.
