HOCKEY.

LADIES' HOCKEY.' The 1913 season practically' finished witlv the Wanganui tournament. The members of the Canterbury team arrived in Christchurch on Sunday morning, and thev all speak in slowing terms of the good time they have had and of their treatment by the AVangamn people. With the exception of the first game, all their matches were hard, and they are to be very heartily congratulated on their performance. The Floyd Shield, which, as runners-up at the tournament, they won. has been awarded for the first time this year. It is a very handsome trophy, and, as some of the'team laughingly remarked, far more handsome than the cup. On Saturday the Canterbury team played a, game against Wellington prior to the men s shield match, and after the strenuous time at the tournament both teams took things somewhat easy. Canterbury winning"with a goal to spare. The following ""tables give the performances of the different teams that competed at the tournament:—
