PIRINOA

GOLF CLUB COMPETITION. ("Times-Age” Special.) An eclectic competition has been arranged for the season, a trophy for the same having been donated by Misses M. McDonald and Cock. The rain, which fell at the weekend, has materially benefited the greens and will be much appreciated by players. Playing on the local links on Saturday in a bogey competition the men’s match was won by R. McDougall and the ladies by Mrs Carter. The ladies’ committee of the Pirinoa Golf Club have altered the handicaps of Mrs Carter (28) and Mrs Bragg (30). The handicaps in all cases will be amended next month to conform with L.G.U. rules.
