DUNSANDEL CLUB.

The annual meeting of the Dunsanclel Football Club was presided over by the president, Mr H. A. Brown, and there was a very good attendance.

Those present stood in silence as a mark o? respect to the memory of the late Mr G. Shcat, who was a patron of the Club.

In his opening remarks the president complimented the Club on the very successful season experienced. T|ie club had won the E.R.S.Tj. shield, the senior sevena-side medals and the thirdgrade banner, besides having eight players in the senior representative team and four in the .junior representative team. This was an achievement that any club might well be proud of.
