Hewson (excuse-me lucky spot one-step) and Miss S. Hide and Mr Green (Monte Carlo waltz). The duties of M.C. were carried out by Mr A. Mackie. After supper the president, Mr Cain thanked all who had assisted the club in any way throughout the year, especially Mrs Topham and Mr Edgar, and also those who gave trophies to all tournaments held during the season.
