SWEENY'S GREAT SPRINT

I came away from Aldershot yes- terday feeling rather sorry for the Royal Air Force, who had just failed win the Inter-Services athletic the championships. For 14 years Army have persistently carried off the honours, but yesterday with the last event of the day, the quarter-

First Round Games In
INDIANS team mate, E. W. Harrison, almost Second Summer Singles
In Saturday's programme of League Lawn Bowls were two important results and one interesting personal appearance.
In the Third Division, Civil Service, hy benting the Club de Recreio nt King's Park, won the Third Division championship, in the year of Its Inauguration. For this victory they had chiefly to thank M. N, Rakusen, whose rink beat J. M. S. Rozario's by 21 shuts, the other two Civil Service rinks being down.
The Indian Recreation Club, starting the match with the knowledge that, if they won, the Second Division Shield was theirs, lost to Craigengower on the latter's green by the narrow margin of three shots. The Indians really lost the game on the 19th head when all three rinks went down to the tune of eleven shots. They now have to beat Kowloon Cricket Club to win the title, while Craigengower, their nearest rivals, have to meet the Club de Recreło twice.
The First Division fight is still on undecided. Cenlgengower, Jast year's champions, and the Club de Recreio, who are battling it out between them, both won although the Portuguese Club got home by only one shot against the Bowling Green.
An Interesting appearance was that of Mr. Ezra Abraham, Vice-President of the Kowloon Cricket Club, who turned out for E. C. Fincher's rink in the First Division match against the Police. The rink tied 13-13 with G. Perkins' quartette. It is understood that Mr. Abraham, who acquitted himself very well, has played bowls less than half a dozen times before in his life and this was his first game for the Kowloon Cricket Club.
