Jamestown Racing Club Ltd held its annual meeting at Watters Hotel on Friday October 27. Chairman P J McCarthy reported a balanced year with the overdraft reduced to £673 7s 0d, improvements to the course, and a commemorative 50 year racing milestone. Donations from members supported a rich programme and staff and officials were thanked. Election of committee members was uncontested with three-year terms. Racing dates set for January 24 and April 3 with stakes around £125. Recommendations favored Red Cross donations and a reduced Jamestown Handicap, plus a hurdle race. The club plans to invite Sir Malcolm Barclay-Harvey and Lady Muriel Barclay-Harvey to January's meeting.
