Graceville visitors entertained by the club

The visiting players from the Graceville Croquet Club were entertained by the president and members of the West Toowoomba Croquet Club last Tuesday, when a friendly game was played on the lawns, which resulted in a win for Graceville. Morning and afternoon tea was set in the club house, at tables attractively decked with red, white and yellow dahlias. Luncheon was held at the Cafe La Morada, and in the evening the visitors and officers of the Toowoomba Croquet Club were entertained by the West Toowoomba Club members at a picture party at the Strand Theatre.

Baker (deputy captain), R. Gibson, E. A. McConachie, A. Wilson, W. Elvery, C. Searle, Padget, Blake, Mitchell and Miss R. Fryar.
