48 Wanganui's first goal (the equaliser) stemmed from a penalty corner. B. Rohloff shields his face as the Japanese captain, K.Iwahashi, swings his stick in an attempt to stop the ball going into the net. Roy McIntyre at right awaits to see if his team had scored from the melee. A.Okanoto bites the dust as Bill Brasting beats him and sizes up for a shot at the net. M.Ohara, the Japanese goalie, rushes out to clear while Brian Rohloff lurks in the background waiting for developments. Japanese captain, K.Iwahashi, looks on as his goalie, M. Ohara, kicks away a shot by Bill Brasting (right). With the Japanese in frantic defence, J.Brasting makes an assault on the goal. George Meadows hampers Roy McIntyre. Three Wanganui players, Don McCallum, Barry Morgan, and Bill Brasting, find it pretty tough to break through the defence set up by seven of the Japanese team. 49
