The Otago Association reported that tho ent,o at tho Otngo-Cantcrbury match for tho Football Association trophy was £'l3o. and tliero wns profit of £3O. The North Auckland Association wrote stating that it was not in favour of an infernal insurance schemo as suggested by the Wanganui Association. Its own scheme was giving entire satisfaction. Tho North Auckland Association alßo nsked if something could be dono toward interesting other associations to challengo for tho Brown Shield.

Tho secretary reported that associations hod been circularised accordingly. Tho North Auckland Association intimated that it was prepared to receive a challenge from South Auckland this season.
