There was no score of 200 or over, in fact, D. M. Keplinger, of U.S.S. Mindanao, with 192 on his second game and a similar score in. his fifth and last game. made the highest scores for the five games. His total bag was 835, or an average of 167 pins per game, good consistant bowling:
On going back through Keplinger's match records I find that in his last six matches. his total pinnage has been 4808 or an over- age of 801 pins per match, or 180 pins per game: this is good consistant bowling.
This compares very favourably with J. H. Watt's effort for the last six matches, his bag being 4981 or an average of 830 per match, an average of 160 per game.
H. Blount follows very closely with 4851 for his last six match games giving him an average of 800 per inatch or 161 pins per
game.
In the match above referred to there was nothing much between the four Alley repre-
