CROQUET is not perhaps the most widely advertised, or the most wildly exciting, of outdoor games, but it has a large number of enthusiastic exponents throughout the country. They will undoubtedly welcome the opportunity afforded them this afternoon by Col. W. B. du Pre, who is to talk on his recent croquet tour in Australia and New Zealand. This is the first of a series of afternoon talks on sports, which is to be given fortnightly from July to
September this year. It is hoped to include among the subjects tennis, archery, golf, badminton, and later hockey.
