The North and for Portsmouth. South of England games have again been included after a lapse of many years. Those are prae- tically Test matches, and in the past were always tough proposi- tions for the Australian team. Another game likely to create great interest is that against the great Public Schools at. Lords. The match against the Civil Ser- vice should also be an interesting fxture.
The main feature of the 1926 programme, according to Mr. Smith, is the provision of a day's rest before each Test, a matter which caused much argument in 1921.
