At Ragby ten matches were won and nine lost. and at Association ren were won and six lost. There was no doubt, he thought, that the Club had very hard lines in the Shield competition in losing so early. If they meant to do better this year they would have to practise more assiduously. With reference to the pest of president, as he was leaving early next year it would be necessary to etect a new president, and he would suggest the aume of Mr. G. C. C. Master. Mr. Martor took au interest in the game; he was nearly always | present when there was a match on, and they all knew him as a very keen sport. He was also one of the original members of the Club. He proposed that Mr. Master be asked to fill the post of prasident,

Mr. H. C. SANDFOLD seconded, and the motion was agreed to.

ML. CLARK said they had the field for the whole week, andthey could easily have one ma'ch a week for each section.

The PRESIDENT said the difficulty was that thers would be so few teams competing, with probably one or two far and away better than the others that it would be practically a competition between these superior teams.

Mr. W. W. CLARK said he did not approve of a Shield competition. Let the Army have a team of their own and cach ship a team of their own and have a Championship with two points for a win uut one for a draw. In Scotland they had a championship, and it was quite satisfactory.

Mr. PEARCE rearked that they were quite in the hands of th Navy tennie, because out ship might not care to play against another in the championship, whereas they did not mind playing a friendly. He did not approve of ohampionships or Shield ties at all.
