LADIES’ ASSOCIATION The annual meeting of the Otago Ladies’ Hockey Association, which was held last night, was presided over by Mrs R. Hudson, and there was a large attendance of de’etmtes.

In welcoming them Mrs Hudson said that she was glad to see so im ny present, and hoped that they were all fit and prepared for a good season. In explaining a misunderstanding which had occurred last season, Mrs Nelson said that tho tournament fund showed a credit balance of £63 9s 7d. This had been raised chiefly through public subscription. The general fund showed a credit of £202. There was very little chance of tho association obtaining revenue, and the executive had tho genera 1 fund to send teams to the tournaments.
