OUT FOR REVENGE
K.C.C.'S GRIM FIGHT TO AVOID RELEGATION
(By "Skip")
WEATHER permitting, the curtain will be drawn on League bowls to-morrow with three encounters in the First Division and two in the Second Division. The chief match amongst the Seniors is that between the Crai- gengower "A" and the Kowloon Bowling Green Club at the Valley..
Although the destination of the League flag is decided. and the home team in the above match is the proud possessor, this will have no effect upon the visitors, who will strain every muscle and bring forth every wile to avenge themselves for that defeat inflicted on them recently by the champions at Austin Read.

BEST POSSIBLE RINKS FOR COLONY SIDE
JUNIORS' FEELING OF CONTENT
-(By "Skip").
MENTIONED last week that. I considered the team Shanghai has decided to send down is just about the best that has ever visited this port W. Train is one of the ablest bowlers 1 know and his command of the game is pro- found. He is capable of filling any position for which he may be selected, although in all pro- bability he will be asked to fill the difficult posi- tion of No. 1.
R. P. Phillips has met with many successes on both Shanghai and Colony rinku. :
LW. Brierly, of whom we have the cheeriest of memories, was No. 1 in that all-conquering team which... was j skipped and captained by R. CAitkenhead in 1927. Brierley plays very wide drawing bowls, and it is this fact that makes his play so remarkable, as his sense of length is in no way PHILLIPS affected, and no doubt he will be asked to occupy the No 3 place to C Richards.
The latter is the oldest member of the team, and a won- derful bowler. What a pleasure it would be to see C. Richards opposed to R. Duncan in a singles encounter if time permits- Richards is well known here, as this will be the third year, in succession he has been selected to represent Shanghai in Hong Kong
