LLANELLY CRICKET. .a.. ENCOURAGING OUTLOOK FOR THE COMING SEASON. THE ENGAGEMENT OF YOSLER. There was an encouraging attendance at the annual meeting of the Llanelly Cricket Club, which was held at the Thomas Arms, on Wednesday nig-ght, when Mr. H. E. Truh- shaw presided. Before proceeding with the business, the Chairman referred to the enforced absence of Mr. J. Santa Ebans, who had discharged the duties of secretary and treasurer. He did not think anybody who took an active interest in the affairs of the club last year could fail to realist the value of Mr. Evans' services. The members of the club were very much indebted to him, and wished him a speedy recovery. The assistant-secretary (Mr. E. P. Rees) in presenting the annual report, stated that of the seventeen matches played by Llan- elly last season, seven were won, five lost, and live drawn, and of the five lost three were against Swansea, the other two being lost to Britonferry and Britonferry Steel- works. The Llanelly team's most notable icluevement was against Cardiff. Page headed the batting averages, having played 17 matches, in which his highest score was 94, while his total was 537, an average of 33.5 runs. Percy Rees, who came second, played 17 matches, and his highest ecore was 63, while his total was 353, an average of 20.7. The three best bowling averages were as follow :— 0. M. R. W. A E. Gee 154 26 148 36 15.2 pa,ge .m. 187 35 543 34 15.9 n C. Warner. 43.1 3 197 12 16.4 The Llanelly Seconds played 19 matches, f which 11 were won, 3 lost, and 3 drawn. The balance-sheet showed that the season Has started with a credit balance of 15s. 6d., ind it closed with a deficit of LI06 6s. 7d. Souong the receipts were IIS 6s. 6d., from Mr. T. Hay Samuel, the proceeds of a bene- fit nignt at the Picturedrome, JE73 8s. from gate receipts, and JE176 3s. 9d. from mem- bership subscriptions. The Chairman, in moving the adoption of the report and statement of accounts, said that on the first blush it was a rather disappointing balance-sheet, because they were faced with a deficit on the year's working of something over £ 100. He had hoped that towards this deficit they would have received a substantial cheque from tin local Amateur Operatic Society, but, unfortunately, hard as the society worked, and in spite of the excellent performances they gave, the cricket club could not ex- pect very much from them. The Operatic Society this year did not get the support from the public that they should, and he thought that if the society decided to con- tinue their support to the cricket club, the members of the club would do more than they had done in the past by help- ing to dispose of the tickets. (Ap- plause.) Even though the club would not receive much from the Operatic Society this year, they owed them a deep debt of gratitude for what they had re- ceived in the past. (Applause.) When members considered what was done last year in the way of improving the ground, pavilion, etc., he did-not think the deficit should give cause for much anxiety. They had to bear in mind that the subscrip- tions had increased to JE176, which con- stituted a reoord for the club. (Applause.) As they were aware, the club had engaged as professional a man who had an excellent name in the cricket world in the person of Vogler, and he (the chairman) felt sure that if the weather was good increased gate re- ceipts and subscriptions could in conse- quence be confidently anticipated. Mr. Santa Evans wished him to apologise for his absence, and to thank the members for the hearty -support they had given him. Mr. B. Percy Reee seconded the motion, which was carried. On the motion of the chairman, Mr. C. W. Man-sel Lewie was re-elected president, and Mr. T. Hay Samuel was added to the list of r iee-pre-si dent a. The following officials were also elected unanimouslyCaptain of First XI., Mr. Harold E. Trubahaw (re-elected); vice-cap- tain of First XI., Mr. E. Gee; captain of Second XI., Mr. T. L.
