"WICK'S" BOWLS NOTES
Seven Clean-sweep Victories Over Week-end
Relegation Danger In Senior Division Disappointing Rink Games
WITH ALL the leading teams winning their matches, there was little of note in last week's League programme except in the scores. In this connection, no fewer than seven teams-three in the First Division, two each in the Second and Third-had clean sweeps, while A. R. Dallah's Indian R. C. rink (J. Hoosen, A. K. Ismail and U. A. Rumjahn) registered the first "possible" in the First Division this season.
Craigengower C.C., despite: the absence of three of their best men, had little difficulty with the Police and won by five points to nil. The advantage of home green played the main part in the Craigengower suc- cess as the visitors at no period appeared to have settled down.
Biggest surprise in this match was the overwhelming defent of J. Shepherd's rink which had only once before bowed to defeat.
