The Combined Services XV as expected, proved too strong in attack for the Combined Civilians in last night's floodlit game on the Club ground and comfortably by 14 points (one goal, two tries, one penalty goal) to six (two penalty goals) in a hard, fast and exciting match. In the first game of the evening Rotoiti swamped the RAF Mainland, whose attack without the services of Coombes and Martin was but à shadow of its former self, by 22 points (two goals, three tries, one penalty goal) to nine (two tries, one penalty goal) in a rather unexcit- ing match.
The Rotoiti threes were far too strong for the RAF defence, who wasted their chances by not passing in sufficient time.
