By “TOUCHER”
A close finish for the Colony's First Division Lawn Bowls League title looks imminent between Craigengower Cricket Club and Kowloon Cricket Club as both contenders cleared their respective hurdles in fine style on Saturday.
Of the two teams, Craigengower scored the more convincing win of five points lo nil over Taikoo, who failed to produce form anywhere near that which gave them a 5-0 win over IRC "Blues" the week before.
Some dne bowling by Franch Lee at No. 1 led the way for the Craigengower four shipped by S. Leonard to bulki a runway Taikoo lead of 30-0 over the four of G. H. Clayton, J. Me- Lavatel J H. Kinniburgh
