Rugby Makes A Start
(By “Jake")
ATTEMPTS TO FORM an indoor bowling league for Servicemen are meeting with great suc- cess. Membership to date is 25, among whom are most of the best bowlers in Military circles, but further entries from the Royal Scots and the Middlesex are expected as well as from Depart- mentals and Corps, and it is expected that the roll will attain the fifty-mark within the next week or
so.
First match is expected to take place at the close of this week, and arrangements for this and other matches are in the hands of the Manager of the Hongkong Bowling Alleys.
