HOME TO THE
CHAMPIONS Craigengower “A” At Kowloon Docks
WILL THEY EMULATE "B" TEAM'S SUCCESS?
The second series of matches in the Hong Kong Lawn Bowls League will take place to-day with a full programme of games in both the Senior and Junior Divisions.
Taikoo Docks will be fully ex- tended to repeat last year's home victory against the senior cham- pions, the Kowloon Bowling Green, whom they entertain in their first match of this season. The Docks won last year by 62 shots to 58.
Although without the services of Hughie Nish and Adam Holland, the Bowling Green have already demonstrated their good form this season by defeating stern chal- lengers in the Kowloon C.C.
Craigengower "A" will journey to the Kowloon Docks, and it will be interesting to see if B. W. Bradbury and his colleagues can emulate the success of their "B" team's debut performance last week. The Civil Service should repeat their win of last year against the
