GOLF.

A general meeting of the Gisborne Golf Club was held last evening, Mr. Reynolds being in the chair. It was reported that a piece of land at Awapuui . containing about a hundred acres had been acquired for links. As tlie acquisition of this land will entail considerable expense, it was decided to double the subscription to the club. Mr. Hood, the Auckland professional who is at present in Gisborne giving members instruction, was present at the meeting, and stated that after going over the ground ho was of opinion that with little expense it could be made into one of the best links in the colony. It is the intention of the club to erect necessarv buildings on the new links. The Ladies’ Golf Club yesterday played a match under sealed handicaps for prizes presented by the captain, Mrs. Morgan. Mesdames King and Barton tied for the first prize, and Mrs. Stephenson won the second prize. The following were the. best cards handed in:— Mrs. King, 72, 7—65; Mrs. Barlow, 68, 3—65; Mrs. Stephenson, 87, 22—65; Miss F. Adams, 68, scr—6B. Other ladies out were: Mesdames Rees, Eliott, Porter, W Barker, V. Barker, Cole, Bull, Misses DeLautour, Beere, Coleman (2), Sweet (2), and S. King.
