LOSER FORGETS HIS TACTICS
A SPECTACULAR LAST HEAD
HYDE-LAY SHOWS INITIATIVE
(By "Veritas")
A Hyde-Lay, playing the finest bowls of his career, was yesterday crowned the new lawn bowls champion of the Colony, when he beat R. F. Luz, a former holder of the title, by 21 shots to 15 in 20 heads.
It was not a brilliant exhibition of the game in the sense that the players would take each other out! of shot wood with perfect de- liveries, but Hyde-Lay did main- tuin a sufficiently high standard of necuracy, combined with skill and tactics, which not only earned him a meritorious success, but held the keen interest of the big crowd of spectators.
There were some very poor heads, but there were also number of heads which did full justice to the importance of the ocension. The fact that Luz pever, at any stage of the match, touched his best form, detracts nothing from the display of Hyde-Lay.
The K.C.C. representative played the type of game which would have been good enough to beat the Portuguese at his best.
FAVOURITE ENDS. Both players seized on their favourite end carly in the game and did most of their scoring on Lhem. Hyde-Lay for instance showed more than a partiality for bowling from the Valley end. It was from here which he scored his three on the third head, four on the ninth and another four on the 13th. Actually he failed to register shots from this end only on four heads, and fourteen of his 21 shots were scored from there. Luz preferred bowling from the rond end. From here be scored -seven-shots-on-four-heads. Yet it was from Hyde-Lay's favourite and that the loser obtained his four. He owed it to Hyde-Lay's thetical blunder rather than a

The real value of Hyde-Lay'a game was to be found in his ac- curney. His last two woods on nearly every head were better than those of his opponent. Luz lacked finish to his game, whereas Hyde- Lay was most dangerous when bowling his fourth wood.
