Most howling dubs have a sugges-tion-book as well as a visitors’ book, find possibly during- the- Dominion tournament Wellington will derive some valuable; suggestions from visitors trom all.parts or.the Dominion. Two such entries in the book on .Karori green are interesting. Mr B. Pilkington (Hamilton)' entered a suggestion that all Wellington greens >shanld be brought up to the standard of Karori green. Mr J. Lonsdale (Seatoun) wrote: “Have no suggestion as to the green. Caqnot be improved upon.” '
