. . •■• — • ■ • ■ The Chrietchurch green was fully occupied ou Saturday afternoon with a match between rinks chosen from the various members, who were classified under the (as it turned but) highly inappropriate titles of "Old Buffers" and "Young Duffers," seeing that the latter proved that the title given them was not altogether warranted.
