There was a tie between T. F. McKeever and
J. P. Kennedy (Carrickmacross) for the Society's
Cup and the Captain's Prize, each having 72 strokes.
The latter won by half a stroke on the second
nine, but Frank McKeever, with his score of 72,
won the Patrick's Plate and the Prize for the
Runner-up. The best gross went to J. McCarroll
of. Wicklow with a score of 83.
The Veterans'
Cup was won by W. J. O'Reilly with a score of 87.
In the afternoon a Fourball Competition was
played, which was won by P. R. Boyd and J. D.
Rooney with one up.
The dinner in the Clubhouse was presided over
by the Captain, J. J. Hickey, who referred to the
large number of country members present, and
expressed the hope that country Solicitors would
support the Society to the full now that the petrol
restrictions were easier. He welcomed especially
two very old members of the Society who had
not been with us for some years, viz., Michael
Dwyer (County Registrar for Wicklow) and E. W.
Mooney.
Those taking part in the musical pro–
gramme were R. J. Tierney, P. J. Kennedy and
J. P. Kennedy, with Des. McLoughlin at the piano.
The venue for the Autumn Meeting of the
Society is receiving the attention of the Committee.
The President of the Incorporated Law Society
has very kindly suggested that the outing should
be held at Greenore, and that if the members
wished, a pleasant week-end could be arranged
at the hotel there. Will all Solicitors interested
in the Society who are not already members please
communicate with the Hon. Sec., A. Marshall,
119 Stephen's Green, Dublin, who will give them
full information.
