Cricket Club.

On Wednesday last some forty-five members of the Cricket Club attended the annual general meeting, with Mr. J. R. Stevens presiding. After presentation of the annual report, Mr. J. A. Carriad discussed the endeavours and hope of the N.Z.U. Cricket Council to arrange an annual North v. South match, as well as matches against visiting teams.

It was unanimously decided to approach Mr. N. R. Jacobsen and ask him to act as coach to the club.

After discussion of hours of play, allocation of points, etc., the incoming committee was recommended to make every effort to arrange a Xmas tour, and also to arrange Sunday games and matches before the start of the season.

At this stage the auditor arrived (the fault in no way attributable to that dignatory) with the balance-sheet, and his report and the former was then adopted.

The election of officers resulted as follows:—Club captain, Mr. W. Tricklebank; secretary, Mr. J. B. Stevenson; treasurer, Mr. T. A. Harpur; committee, Messrs. D. S. Dean, J. A. Evans, R. S. V. Simpson and A. Wiren.
