GOLF COMPETITIONS. (“Times-Age” Special.) Owing to the wet weather and the state of the road the Homewood team was unable to play the return match scheduled for Sunday, and it is probable that a date will be arranged later in the season. Next weekend an inter-club match will be played against the Wainui-o-ru Club on the Stronvar links. Players are reminded that an early start is necessary to enable three rounds to be played. Any player who is unable to make the trip is requested to notify the club captain before Saturday next. On Saturday the second round for W. Kummer’s trophies will be played in conjunction with the first qualifying round for the championship. The following is the draw: — Men: Gray v. H. Paku; Cotter v. A. McGregor; M. Paku v. N. Foreman; Vennell v. Winter; W. Kummer v. R. McKinstry; E. Nitz v. F. McKinstry; J. Bannister v. P. Kummer; N. Kummer v. I. McGregor. Ladies: Mrs Schofield v. Miss Bannister; Miss Dickason v.
