Competition was keen, and the result was in doubt until the last few heads, when the K.C.C. forged ahead to record' victories on all

On two rinks, the difference was two and four shots respectively while D. Munro lost to Fraser by

C. J. Tacchi was the oul. standing performer for the winners, bowling with splen- did judgement, and being mainly responsible for his rink's victory. The best head on this green was the 14th, when the score was 11-all.
J. McKelvie's rink was in fine form and well deserved their victory over that of F. J. Jones. It was fortunate for the Docks that his rink did win by a large margin, as on the centre green A. W. Grimmitt's four outlayed J. C. Brown's and on the third green J.
