Pittsworth croquet players visit West Toowoomba

Members of the Pittsworth Croquet Club motored to Toowoomba yesterday and played matches against members of the West Toowoomba Croquet Club. They were entertained at luncheon and morning and afternoon tea at the West Toowoomba Bowling Club's pavilion, which was decorated gaily with groupings of flowers and ferns. The tables were centred with posy bowls of bouvardia, roses and statice. The president of the Toowoomba Club, Mrs. W. Miller, was hostess. She was assisted by Mrs. R. W. McLean and Miss R. Fryar. The visitors were Mesdames Dougall, G. Mayall, J. J. Holmes, S. Gordon, M. Scott and B. Binney. The Toowoomba players were Mesdames A. Carter, C. J. Searle, A. Wilson, R. Padget, A. R. Orr, V. Stuart, M. S. O'Connell, M. Walsh, J. Grant and F. Bullock. On the aggregate the Toowoomba Club was victorious.
