Disastrous Week-end For Club de Recreio
Thrilling Climax To Champions-K.B.G.C. 'A' Game Bad Year For Kowloon C.C.
SATURDAY LAST was a sorry day for Club de Recrcio. Three of their four teams in the Lawn Bowls League were defcated, and to make things even worse, the "B" team in the First Division, until then undefeated, went down badly to Craigengower C.C. at Happy Valley, losing on all three rinks. The Portuguese have not. had such a bad week-end for a long time..
Last week also saw the first "possible" "of the season be- To W. J. Howard's Kowloon Tong rink foll the ing' scored, honour, their victims being W. J. Bagley's Prison Officere' rink. In addition to this eight, A. J. Hall (K.B.G.C. "A") and K. C. Hamilton (K.B.G.C.) each scored a sovon during the after-
noon.
In the big match of the day,] between Kowloon B.G.C. "A">*< .and Club de Recreio "A", at Austin Road, everything pointed to a comfortable victory for the champions until the last three hends.

Three heads faster than the others they made a tie of it--and the scores then were 21-14 in R. F. Luz's favour against A. J. Hall and 17-10 in C. G. Silvo's favour against J. MeKelvie. With a tead of 14 shots, it looked odds on the Portuguese team winning by 4% points to 4.
But there was a complete trans- formation on the 19th head when Hall's rink, by persistent drawing. scored
seven. It was not a head over which to enthuse; the first two or Uree shots were about two feet away from the kitty and the rest were strung out from three to six feet,
Luz, however, was blocked by some badly-placed front woods and failed to alter the position, whereas Hall, by playing on his own woods,
added to the count with both his shots.
This was bad enough, for in one head Hall had wiped out h's defleit, but worse was to follow.
On the next end, Hall played a beautiful shot with bija last wood to take a stugle and lead 22-21. And in the last head, in an attempt to score two shots, Luz had the mis- fortune to cut the jock to give his opponents three.
This happened before C. G. Silva and McKelvle pinyed their last head, on which lie latter obtained a
