BOWLING CLUB ANNUAL MEETING (0.C.) Waverley. July 23 At the annual general meeting of members of the Waverley Bowling Club a minute’s silence was observed in respect to the late Mr. T. Foley, who was an old member of the club. The president (Mr. G. Aiken), in his report, reviewed the past year's activities. He said that this yeai- is the jubilee year and marks a milestone in the club’s history. The jubilee tournament, which was held just before the close of the season this year, was a great success and brought bowlers from as far away as Ohakune.
