(By Leighton).
London, October 21. THE high wind may have been had something to do with it, but the fact remains that the quality of the football seen in the Rugby Union match between the New Zealanders and the com- bined Services at Aldershot on Saturday was never better than second rate.
Kicking to touch was so very much overdone that for st least half the game the ball was out of play Those who support the idea that direct touch kicking should be done away with, saw plenty on which they could base their arguments.
I came away from the ground very disappointed, and with the conviction that the All Blacks will suffer more defeats unless they improve. For the second time in succession the tourists won by a single point - two tries to a converted goal. »

Taylor's Good Display
There was only one forward line, that of the selected eleven, which comprised Khuda Buz, Fara Singh Mohd Afzal, Garthwaite and Lal Singh, although, indivi-. dually, Taylor of the Lincolns team, made a much better inside forward than Tara Singh.
Khuda Bux opened the scoring following a solo effort down the
