Ashburtou Club's Christmas programme unless the scratch events were confined to Ashburton resident.
At a meeting of the Association to-day, a letter was received from the Ashburton Club tendering its secession from the Association unless the (programme was passed as forwarded1. After a lengthy discussion, it was decided that it was not desirable to have a hard and fast rule prohibiting Christmas tournaments, and that the whole matter should be refeiTed to the New Zealand Association.
