F.L. Meeting		The Agenda of this London Meeting of
	222	29th inst., was discussed. It was agreed that our
		representatives sound the feelings of other Clubs & mainly
		support the majority ideas regarding Prices of Admission
		& Players Wages, with a recommendation that Accrued
		Share of Benefit after 5 years service, should be
		payable on a 100% basis.

Cardiff Players		Mr. E. Green reported that Sherwood was
	221	in his opinion, not good enough, but that Clarke
		would be an acquisition. Decided we enquire if
		the Cardiff club would transfer Clarke.

		the O. L. but Mr. Laine thought he was a good proposition.

Middleton		Mr. H. R. Pickering did not think
	217	this full back was any improvement on those
		already on our Staff.
