Correspondence included a circular from the Buller Association advising the presentation of a cup for competition in the Seddon Shield districts, the competition to be held this year at Westport. It was decided to inform Buller that a West? Coast team would probably participate in this year’s 1 tournament, but, owing to financial and other reasons, the Association doubted its ability to challenge teams in districts beyond Buller. At the conclusion of the Executive meeting, a meeting of club delegates was held to discuss the question of augmenting the Association funds. A Queen Carnival was decided upon. Clubs were grouped as follows, each group to elect a queen: Runanga, Paioa. and Tavlorville; Woolworth’s, Truman’s and United and Rovers; Convent 0.G., St. Mary’s and Cobden Convent 0.G..
