R.F. LUZ NOT AVAILABLE
FOR PORTUGAL?
COMPLETE ENTRIES TO DATE NEARLY 100 names, representing seven coun-
tries. have been received by the Hong Kong Lawn Bowls Association for the Gutierrez Inter- national Shield competition, which will commence as soon as possible. England alone has 37 players from whom to choose their team, but perhaps Scot- land, with only 24 names, has the best material.
Ireland and the Philippines have four players each, and can thus dispense with the necessity of selecting a rink, while India and Portugal have nine players each, and Malaya have six. R. F. da Luz, who skipped the Portuguese rink last year, has not entered his name this season.
Of the nine names, eight have been submitted from the Club de
Recreio, and only one, M. J.GODDARD
Medina, is from the Craigen-
gower C.C. The following is the MAINTAINS FINE FORM
