West Toowoomba Croquet Club holds its annual meeting

The annual general meeting of the West Toowoomba Croquet Club took place at the Club House on Friday afternoon last. There was an excellent attendance of members. Two resignations were received—one through change of residence, and the other owing to ill-health. The reports of the secretary and treasurer on the past year's operations were approved and adopted. The office-bearers of the past term were thanked by the retiring president for their loyal services. The election of officers for the 1935-36 period resulted: President, Mrs. McLean; vice-presidents, Mesdames Walsh and Parrot; committee, Mrs. Mitchell and Miss Fryar; treasurer, Mrs. O'Connell; secretary, Mrs. McConachie; captain, Mrs. Miller; vice-captain, Mrs. Baker; selection committee, Mesdames Miller, Baker and Crozier. A number of amendments were carried to the club rules. It was decided to play Grade every Saturday in future. The question of club nominations to the interstate croquet tournament in August next was considered. A decision was deferred for the time being. In previous years the lawns have been closed over the Christmas holidays. A wish was expressed that this be avoided in the coming period if possible, so that games could take place during the festive season.
