We learn that Ian Macallan, the all-rounder in the College First Eleven, has been temporarily transferred to Dunedin. It is to be sincerely hoped that he will be back in this city before the opening of the Cricket Season, otherwise the Eleven will greatly miss his free batting and left-handed trundling.

J. O. J. Malfroy, one-time student of Victoria College, and a member of the Great British Team in the Argentine a few years ago, has, we understand from American papers, continued his interest in Rugby whilst in the States recently. As coach of his University Rugby team there, he has been endeavouring to foster the game in the land of the Stars and Stripes. Another New Zealander, S. Cabot, of Otago University, an ex-All Black, has been putting in good work coaching there, too.
