A pleasing feature of the visit of the Sydney University footballers was the desire they expressed that a team representative of the New Zealand University should pay them a visit. An inter-University contest would excite much greater interest than one between single Colleges, and the probable presentation of a representative badge or "blue" would make the honour a much-coveted one. The difficulties in the way do not seem insurmountable. That of selection would undoubtedly be the greatest, and mistakes might be made, but in any case it should be satisfactory to know that the team in Sydney was drawn, not from a single College, but from the whole University—even if any particular College was so lacking in talent in any one year as to have no man in the team.

For the first time we have had the pleasure of seeing one of our men playing in inter-provincial matches. G. Bogle was Captain of Wellington "B" against Horowhenua, and also played for the "A" team against Otago. A. McCarthy, whom we were sorry to lose at the beginning of the second half, has been playing for Wanganui reps.
