Ronnie Gerrard In Rugby Match

BRILLIANT PERFORMANCE AGAINST

(Continued from Pago 8.) The counties, dofending strongly, were nevertheless in danger when Edward intercepted a pass, and broke clear. A promising thrust, but he held on just too long, and New Zealand swept back to the attack.

Oliver cut through beautifully, and from Oliver the ball went to Griffiths, Mitchell, Sadler, and so back to Mitchell, who was flang into touch by Boughton just short of the line. A lovely movement, swift and sudden, and from the subsequent line-out Hore-leapt for the ball, knocked it over the line, and touched-down for a try,

A palpable knock-on, it seemed to me, though doubtless the referee was unsighted by the jumping forwards. AL any rate, New Zealand harl scored after nine minutes, and our next excitement came when Gerrard went bang through the centre, swinging first outwards, then inwards, before he passed to Hurrell

A try for the Counties seemed certain. Hurrell passed to Wil liams, and Williams to Henderson who had only to crash his way over from a yard's range to score Many a good forward, though, has been confused with the prize no near his grasp, and Henderson allowed the ball to slither through his fingers. So' a grand move- ment died, and Caughey cleared with a long-kick to half-way.
