FANLING GOLF

Mrs. Whyte-Smith Wins Honours

The annual spring meeling of the Ladies' Section of the Royal Hong- kong Golf Club was held at Fanling from Monday to Thursday, March 21-24, in very uncertain weather.

The prizes were presented on Thursday afternoon by Lady Mac- Gregor, the Captain, who in a short speech sold:

Before I present the prizes to the winners 1 want to say how unlucky we have been in the weather for this annual meeting. Last year Mrs. Gilmore was able to refer gratefully to three lovely goling days. I am not, so fortunate. Monday morning was excellent golfing weather, but that afternoon and all Tuesday were Hterally a washout. To-day has done much to make us forget the bad weather we have had, and and my Committee are delighted to see so many here to-day, and to know that so many hardy players ventured out on Monday afternoon and Tuesday.
