THE YPRES TIMES
183
1932 proved a most satisfactory year for
the League, particularly in the recruiting
department, so we must leave nothing unturned
to make the present year's result one of a similar
calibre, and, in fact, try to double our efforts
with the hope that our more palatial quarters
at 20, Orchard Street, W.i, will bring the
League the best of luck.
