A fine performance has been given by Mrs. V. Irvine, a member of the Dalby Croquet Club, in the croquet carnival taking place in Brisbane. She was successful in the country single handicap, defeating Mrs. Nelson Fox (Toowoomba) in the semi-final by 20-16, and winning the final against Mrs. R. S. Gibson (Toowoomba) by the wide margin of 26-3. She lost, however, in the semi-final of the B grade singles, but to-day was to meet Mrs. Burton in the final of the British silver medal handicap.
