The Paeroa ; Ladies,’ Hockey Club referred to its application dated June 6 last for the use of an area in the domain, and asked if the application could be granted. ' . Mr Silcock said that the domain provided room, a.nd could accommodate a hockey field, but, he suggested that the Rawhiti reserve might) be granted to the club.
