Croquet Visitors
The recent visit of the Auckland players Mr and Mrs L. G. Middlemiss created much interest in Gisborne croquet circles.
With many titles held between them, the visitors illustrated the finer points of the game and played demonstration matches with members from local clubs.
About to start a match are Bill Thompson (Turanga), Bertie MacPherson (Gisborne), Les Middlemiss and Charlie Lloyd (Turanga).
Watching from the sideline are Mesdames H. F. Wise, G. A. Burch and W. G. Saxby.
