Warwick players visit for pennant matches

The East Toowoomba Croquet Club looked very attractive yesterday afternoon with the trim green lawns banked with masses of bright flowers and the gay pennants flying overhead. Four players from the Warwick Croquet Club motored to Toowoomba to take part in the pennant matches. They played against the West Toowoomba Croquet players in the morning and were entertained by them at luncheon at the Cafe Alexandra. In the afternoon matches were played against the East Toowoomba players, and tea was set in the Club House at tables decked with dahlias and chrysanthemums.

The players at East Toowoomba were Mesdames G. Fogarty, F. Hodgson, J. Rogers, and A. Carrel, and the Warwick players were Mesdames Madgwick, J. Hislop, Brosnan, and Miss Marshall. The members present at the East Toowoomba lawns were Mesdames Mervyn Dines, Kingsford, H. Goodrich, C. Fortescue, Fisher (Wynnum), G. Cossart, J. Lee, E. Bridgman, and Miss Fisher (Wynnum). Four members of the East Toowoomba Club, Mesdames O. Booth, F. Isaacs, J. Esler, and Grahame, visited Warwick yesterday to take part in the pennant matches.
