JUNIOR LAWN BOWLS
BIG GATES BUT FEW WINS,
ARSENAL ELATED & DESPONDENT,
WEAKNESS IN THE FORWARDS?
London, Sept. 24.
If it is possible for a man to be elated and despondent at once, George Allison must be undergoing the experience. The golden stream pours into High- bury with undiminished fervour, while attendances elsowhere are beginning to slump. And still victories, which are the lifeblood of all professional teams, continue to clude Arsenal. Two wins in seven attempts is hardly cham- pionship form.
In four home matches since the ason opened less than a month ago, 14,000 people have seen Arschal play and the gross receipts are roughly 15,000. Many Third Divi sion clubs do not draw that amount in season. Here are the Illuminating Blures:-

Neither Glover, at lead, nor Munro, skip, was able to show anything like the form of the Interport matches. Glover, however, always had the better of Bright but merely because of the Hongkong player's weakness.
Munro could not rival the brilliance of Chalmers and was fortunate that Train and Richards were able to grive him all the support he required. Ole- casionally he sent down a gond word but he was never as effective as la required of a skip.
