The Hon. Secretary reported that the returfing and. fencing mentioned In the Annual Report for last season had been carried out, but owing to the lack of rain during August the new turf was not sufficiently establish ed to permit of the carly opening of the ground for practice. It Was decided to try and arrange two inter- club. practice games during Septem- ber on other krounds if the latter could be obtained.
Mr. R. W. Sapsed proposed, second- ed by Mr. Duncan, that the practice of shooting in" at goal before matches be not allowed and it was decided to erect practice posts on the sides of the ground where the damage to the turf would have less effect on the field of play.
The Ground Committee were given powers to decide when the ground could be used.
The question of a probable Inter- port Hockey Match with Shanghai early next year was left in the hands of the Chairman, who is visiting Shanghai shortly, and will discuss the matter with the Shanghai representa- tives.
This concluded the business.
The annual report as issued to members showed the accounts to be in a very satisfactory state of affairs, the credit balance of $441.72 brought forward from last season, being in- creased to $645.19,
