(By "Skip")
securing a brilliant away victory against Club de Recreio on Saturday, the Craigen- gower "A" team have practically assured them- With selves of the Championship once more. the exception of their home match against the Kowloon Bowling Green Club to-morrow, they have an easy programme ahead of them and I cannot visualise more than one defeat for them.
Should they secure the anticipated success, they will have won the Championship three times consecutively on two occa sions, a feat previously achieved only by the Taikoo Club who won from 1912 to 1915 inclusive, and again from 1917 to 1919! The fact that there was no competition in 1916, makes their
record virtually seven consecutive wins, of course.
In Saturday's match two out of three rinks won and the other was only one down, F., X. M. Silva getting the better of an old friendly rival in Luz, by that narrow margin, after a ding- dong battle-in which the lead changed hands several times.
Silva began with a four and another one early on gave him a useful lead, but by the 11th head he was in arrears and only five in two heads enabled him to get home by the odd one.
