The Runanga players were entertained at dinner by the Kumara Club and spent a very enjoyable day. Mr J. Clark returned to Harewood R A.F. Training School yesterday, after spending a few days’ leave with •his parents. „ Mr K Southward, of Wigram R.A.f. Training School was home on -eave during the week-end, and has now left on return. In perfect weather conditions on Saturday the Runang a Bowling Club held its annual, “ladies’ day,” when the wives of the members were entertained at the green. Afternoon tea was served in a very capable manner by Messrs A. Taylor, T. Ward and F. White, and a pleasant afternoon was enjoyed by everyone. Mrs A. Taylor was successful in winning the bowling competition, with Mrs T. Gallon second. All the ladies present were recipients of useful trophies donated by the club. Members of the Golf Club held a one-club open competition on Saturday when a good number of enthusiastic members were present Mrs S. Winstanley was the winner of the ladies’ competition with Mrs E.
