Evans of Second Division was easily the top-scorer of the match, with 297, followed closely by Pierce, also of Second Division, with 281.
The remaining players on both sides were mediocre and only averaged from about 75 pins to 89 pins per game. Nevertheless the match produced a good deal of interest and keenness.
The average score per player for Second Division was 92 pins, and for First Division, 78.2 pics per game.
Win For Fifth
The second match of the series was also played on Monday, be- tween the Fourth and Fifth Diva- stons, Fifth winning by 68 pins. It was expected that the experi- enced Drewes and Vasko, good Duck Pin bowlers that they are, would lead the Fourth Division to Victory, but they were not at their best.
Score:-
Fifth Division-1,166 Fourth Divlalon-1,097
The star bowler of this match was Borg of Fifth Division with a brillant 313-the highest score for both matches. His average was slightly over 104 pins per game. He registered two scores of OVET 100-a 102 in his second game and a useful 116 in his third

I was agreeably impressed with the Officers' attempt, as I under-
Duck Pin matches before, and an average of 82 pins per player is not bad going. I expect them to do better in fulure matches as they became accustomed to local conditions.
