HOCKEY.

NEW PLYMOUTH CLUB. The adjourned annual meeting of the above club was held in the Town Hall last evening, Mr. L. Sole presiding. There was a very poor attendance. The annual report, an abstract of which has already appeared in our columns, was read and adopted. Although the expenditure had been heavy the balance-sheet showed a credit balance of £1 7s 9d. The election of officers resulted as follows:—Patron, Mr. F. P. Corkill; president, Dr. Fookes; vice-presidents, Rev. Colvile, Messrs. C. W. Guvett, V. H. Beale, S. Smith, and F. Fagan; auditor, Mr. H. Stocker; delegate to Taranaki Hockey Association, Mr. J. Mackay; secretary, Mr. R. Okey; management committee, office bearers, captain, vice-cap-tain, and Messrs. Griffiths, Howell, and Smith. The election of a selection committee was left over till a later date. Fifteen new members were elected to the club.

The opening day was fixed for Thursday next, May 2, on the club's grounds, play to commence promptly at 2.30 p.m. It was resolved that a letter be forwarded to the Taranaki Jockey Club, asking for permission to use their ground at the racecourse on the same terms as in previous years.
