Foxton. —Head, Bryant, Thomson, Roore (s), 15. Foxton.—Whibley, Pearson. Huntley, Nye (s) 23. Shannon.—Shannon, Burn. Murray, Roach (s) 10. Shannon, —B. Spencer, Bovis, Gunning, E. Spencer (s), 20. Foxton Matter, Downes, Christie, McCall (s’), 13. The aggregate for the two rounds are:—Levin (6 games) 126 points) Foxton (0 games) 101 points; Shannon (4 games) 75 points. As the figures at present stand, it would seem that Levin has an advantage of about 20 points on either Foxton or Shannon (allowing Shannon an additional one l third of their present total for the two games they lack). At the conclusion of play the President (Mr Barr) announced the figures and also took occasion to express the hope that visiting players had had a good day’s sport.

A similar compliment was accorded the ladies for a tasty afternoon tea.
