The membership showed" a substantial increase, there being 80 newcomers, including four juniors. The total membership now stands at 673, including 289 absent members and seven life members.

The outstanding feature of the annual report, is that the Committee were authorised at an Extraordinary Meeting, held on May 28, to borrow money in order to have certain extensions made to the accommodation of the Club House. This work is now in hand and is expected to be completed before the opening of the next football season.
