...hall runs through the rear part of the building and opens near Jarvis. On one side of this is a large and well fitted wash room with a shower bath beyond. This room is far better than anything of the kind in the Gymnasium. Opposite this are two "Fives Courts" for hand ball.

Developing trays of all sizes, hypo tanks, graduates, scales, wash-boxes, gas and running water, are at the disposal of members. The sink has been lined through out with zinc, making leakage an impossibility. What the club now needs is an enlarging lantern and more lockers. A small debt remains, which will probably be raised before summer, and it is hoped that an enlarged membership...
