The Combined Services Game

After a tour which made heavy demands on the Poverty Bay representative team, aggravated by attacks of influenza and injuries, the local team was not exactly in top condition to meet a strong Combined Services side at Rugby Park on August 31. The day was cold and wet with rain falling for most of the game, and in the orthodox game which resulted, the visitors came off best by 23 points to five.

Although the P.B. forwards generally had the worst of it from a fit and eager Services pack, the pictures at above taken during line-outs suggest that the P.B. men were putting plenty of "sting" into this department of the game.
