Young, F. Labatt, E . T . Harper, H . S. Burnes, J. B. Beckett, C. II. Clark, and N. J. Hardy. In accordance with a notice of m otion, Mr. H ardy m oved : “ That no person who is in receipt of any payment whatsoever as a cricketer or coach shall be eligible to play in Plunket Shield matches until he has resided in the Dominion for twelve months con­ tinuously, and that the rules for the Plunket Challenge Shield be amended accordingly.” Tbe m otion was seconded by Mr. Harper. Mr. F. C. Raphael m oved, as an am end­ ment : “ That no person shall be eligible to play in any match whatever under the jurisdiction of the New Zealand Cricket Council, unless he has resided in the Dominion for four months continuously pre­ ceding the match.” The amendment was lost, and on the m otion being put to the m eeting it also was lost T he rules, therefore, stand unaltered. The M arlborough Association wrote com ­ plaining that no refund was made to it iu connection with the losses sust lined during the tour of Lord Hawke’s team. It was pointed out by several of those present that the whole trouble arose through the om ission of the secretary of the Marlborough A ssocia­ tion to send in a petition requesting such refund to be made. It was decided that the matter be referred to the Management Com ­ mittee to report to the Council at its next meeting. The Auckland Association wrote as to the advisability of lim iting the number of challenges for the Plunket Shield. It was resolved that the Auckland Association should be communicated with, calling its attention to Rule 3. A letttr was received from the secretary of the Hawke’s Bay Cricket Association, asking for a refund of the am ount guaranteed (£75) by the Hawke’s Bay A ssociation for its match with the Australian team, which had not bten played, owing to the cricket ground being flooded. It was resolvtd that the matter be referred to the Management Com ­ mittee for th^ir report, and to make a recom ­ m endation to the U oju cil on the matter at its next m eeting.
