Craigengower Three Win Ladies' Triples PERFECT PERFORMANCES
Lawn Bowls Title.
SCORE 17 SHOTS ON LAST SIX HEADS IN DRAMATIC FINISH
By ROBERT TAY
There have been many spectacular victorios in the finals of Colony lawn bowls championships in the past, but it is doubtful if any of them could match the final of the ladios'
open triples event at the Hongkong Cricket Club yesterday. At the end of the 12th head, the Craigengower three of Mrs Selina Silva, Mrs Irene Souza and Miss Helen Kwong were trailing behind their Kowloon Bowling Green Club opponents Mrs D. McKittrick, Mrs Doris Bicheno and Mrs Jean Rounse- -fell by 4-18 and to almost everyone among the spectators
the match seemed practically over.
The Cralgengower bowlers, however, thought otherwise, They not only scored, on Bve of the remaining six heads, but also chaliced up no fewer thon 17 shots on those dve beucks to snatch a dramatir 21-19 vlctory after a thrilling tust lead, and become the Arsi champtons of the Colony Open Triples Cham- which was pionship augurated its year.

New York, Aug. 17. Ted Williams enjoyed a perfect day at bat today and Leo Kiely gave a perfect performance in relief to lead the Boston Red Sox to a 6-5 vic- tory over the New York Yankees.
