PROPOSED N, Z: BOWLING
TOUR OF BRITAIN ABANDONED
The English Bowling Association have announced that the proposed tour of a New Zealand team in the home countries this year has been abandoned.
The Association states that ow- ing to the general conditione exist- ing, the request for a postpone ment of the tour came from New Zealand, and the International Bowling Board, have accepted the position and agreed to the post- ponement.
J. Konnuway, the Celtic goalkeeper, was obtained from the Fall River Club (U.S.A.) in 1981. Though a Canadian by birth, he has played for the Scot tish League on four occasions--twice against the English League, and twice against the Irish League.

One-factor golf authorities have regarded with considerable appre- hension is the well watered green and the subsequent specialisation, at the quick stopping pitch shot, this condition has led to. In fact the matter of hitting boldly for the pin, knowing the ball will come to a quick stop, has become prevalent that the run-up shot” has had to take a back-seat.
-BO
Few golfers give it the con- sideration it deserves which is regrettable for in golf, the sim- ..plest shot is often the best, and
there are
very many occasions when the run-up is by far the simplest. If there are no hazards immediately ahead to entice the ball to drop into them, there is no reason for tempting trouble by pitching for a quick stop, when a run-up would provide B greater margin of safety.
"
Naturally this shot requires a considerable amount of accuracy and judgment but then so does the pitch shot and the latter is more likely to go further away from the objective. The point to stress is to pick out some good spot to. hit to, then hit the ball as nearly as
