"Reference 10 the Balance Sheet shows a considerable decretion in the cash balance which, however, need not occasion any alarm, as, taken in asso- ciation with the Stuck and Sundry Debtor Assets, the position then reveal- ed is favourably comparable with that of the previous year. The opportunity was taken during the year of consider- ably augmenting the Bar Stocks at rates much cheaper than now obtaining, the benefit of which will be more fully felt in the year to come. I would submit no particular comment is called for lu respect of other items in the Balance Sheet.
"The demands made both on the Course and the Club membership dur- ing the past year have precluded nor- mal use of the facilities offered by the Club, which adversely affected revenue and caused a curtailment of the usual competition programme. Despite suth discouragement your Committee have taken a long view and made continuous efforts to improve the Course, from the playing point of view. and the Club- house amenities, so that when a return to normalcy is possible the Club wil be increasingly attractive to its mem- bers. I am certain you all support the policy which has been followed and are appreciative of the many improvements and changes which have been made.
