Mr Wake was appointed doorkeeper, Messrs Sherley and Kelly joint M.G.’s, and Messrs Grainey and Rollo to take charge of the euchre room.

Mr Mead said that the school committee recommended that the socials should commence on the 25th inst'., and that the same night be utilised to welcome the new headmaster. A motion on these lines was carried. It was further resolved that dances should start at 7-30 p.m. sharp and finish at 1 i. 30 p.m. It was decided that no cards should be played on the first evening, when the headmaster is to be welcomed, but that musical items should be substituted. Arrangements for the musical items weer left to Mrs Sherley. It was decided that the male members of the committee should pay the full fee to enter the socials, and the lady members be allowed to pass providing they brought a basket. Engagement of caterers and a dance orchestra were discussed, and final arrangements were left to Mrs Kelly.
