McMcKenzie beat W. Ashton. The finalists are now H. Rayner and R. McKenzie. On Saturday J. H. Dashwood, G. R. Lovelock and P. Gronn will represent Marton in the Returned Soldiers' tourney at Wanganui. On Saturday next eight rinks from St. John’s will visit Marton for an afternoon game. Wanganui East Club are sending eight rinks to Marton during the coming week-end for morning and afternoon games. A number of “learners” are taking a keen interest in the game, and it looks as if the Marton Club’s membership will show another big increase next season.
