The Chairman, addressing the meet ing, said: Gentlemen, I regret that owing to another engagement, your President. His Excellency the Hon. Mr. W. T. Southom, the Officer Ad- ministering the Government, is unable to be present with us to-night;
The past year, so far as lawn bowls in the Colony is concerned, has been an eventful one. As, however, Mr. Soutborn dealt very fully with the activities of the Association, when presenting the League Shields and Spey Royal Cup last entumn, I shall confine my review to the barest
essentials.
I now propose the adoption of the General Account of the Association for the year ended 28th February, 1930, and shall be pleased if someone present will kindly second the motion.

It was decided that league matches should be commenced on May 3, and that the date of closure for open championship entries should be Hay 20.
Entries were taken for the Spey Cup, and the draw resulted as follows:

The question as to whether the best of three matches instead of one should decide Interport lawn bowls honours will come up for discussion at this meeting and in due course the officers of the Association will be pleased to learn your views so that they may be conveyed to our Shang- hai friends.
Last year there was a record entry of 83 contestants for the Open Championship of the Colony, which was won by that young and skilful player Mr. R. F. Luz. Our heartiest congratulations are extended to Mr. Luz on his success.

After returning thanks for his election, Mr. Tacchi said that when the Hongkong team played at Home they had a wonderful reception. The President of the Wanstead Club, where the games were played, "Mr. Esplin, O.B.E., offered to prerint a cup for an annual match and hoped that Hongkong would be able to raise them that Hongkong players would team every year, 3r.

The next matter to be considered was the suggestion of playing thres Interport matches instead of one.
