Yangtszepoo Lawn Bowls Club

The Annual Meeting

A fair number of members attended the annual meeting of the above club, held on Thursday at Shepherd' Cafe under chairmanship of Mr. J. R. Tweedlie.

The Chairman remarked that they had a very satisfactory season last year, the working of the club yielding a nett profit of $437. was very pleasing to note the growth in popularity of the game, the club gaining 51 new members. Their greens had now been extended and re-turfed and would be ready for play when the new season opened. Possibly the greens would not be in the best condition, but they must expect some troubles.

He'urged the members to get together as early as possible, 80 that they would be ready for the many matches they would have to Ylay. If they got into practice early, he did not see any reason why they should not have a good season, especially as Messrs. Ferrier and McMurdo were back again. He had an idea the club was going to show up very wel] this year.

The report and accounts were passed and the following officers were elected:—Hon. President, Mr. A. W. Brankston; President, Mr. G. Johnston; Vice-President, Mr. J. Grieve; Captain, Mr. J. R. Tweedlie; Vice-Captain, Mr. R. Peden; Committee, Messrs. L. H. Turner, F. Lloyd, A. Cheetham, G. McMurdo, F. Ferrier and J. Walker.
