THE  

RUGBY LEAGUE  

NEWS  

August- 11, 1956. Vol. 37 No. 23.  

Registered in Australia for transmission  

by post as newspaper.  

PRICE SIXPENCE  

MAORI STARS  

FOR SYDNEY  

Followers of Rugby League in Sydney are  

eagerly awaiting the first appearance of the  

Maoris at the Sports Ground on Sunday, Sep-  

tember 2.  

The Maoris play again at the Sports Ground  

the next Sunday, following which the Kangaroos  

will be selected.  

It is 34 years since we had Maori team in  

Australia, but in the intervening years there have  

been classy Maori players in Australia with the  

Kiwis.  

In Brisbane last week the Maoris played fast,,  

open football such as Rugby League fans in  

any part of the world appreciate.  

The first Maori game in Sydney will be against  

Metropolitan team. No doubt the selectors  

will choose players who will match the Maoris  

at their own type of spectacular football.  

Australia knows the quality of Maori skipper,  

Henry Maxwell, and also has had glowing re-  

ports of the side-stepping centre, Andrew Berry-  

man. In Sydney we are waiting to see Berryman,  

who steps off either foot, and is reputed to have  

the best side-step of any centre in Rugby League.  

HENRY MAXWELL  

NEXT SATURDAY  

FIRST SEMI-FINALS  

CRICKET GROUND  

3RD GRADE STARTS 12.15 P.M.
