MAIR & CHALMERS SHINE

AGAINST ENGLAND

CHINA MAY ENTER NEXT YEAR'S RINK COMPETITION

PLAYING

(By SHORT HEAD.)

a sound all-round game Scotland caused a surprise yester. day when they beat England by 8 shots in the Final Round of the International Shield Lawn Bowls rink competition on the Recreio

green.

All the Scottish players were consistently good, with W. Mair and J. Chalmers outstanding. Mair was in brilliant form and was largely responsible for the downfall of England. For the losers, B. W. Bradbury played a very good game, but a large number of his shots were wasted, and the Craigengower skip would have been more useful in his usual position. Very often, with a great shot, Bradbury would draw close to the jack.

Grimmitt's best effort was Ou the 16th head, when, after two good woods by Chalmers, Scotland were lying for two. He played a great shot to take a point.
