Ten-pin bowling spreading fast in Britain

London, Aug. 2. Ten-pin bowling, the American craze which vies with bingo in Great Britain, is spreading. The Rank Organisation, successful with their opening venture at the Regal Bowl, Golders Green, London, have extended their enterprise to a second set of "twenty lanes" at Hove, Sussex and that makes six in the country.

The dour but triumphant South African Rugby tour of Britain and France last winter, despite the mud and rain, produced the remark- able gate receipts of more than £240,000—a record for a tour in these

countries.

I have been probing the cash success of the Springboks 34- match trall. It is a fascinating and intriguing story which re- veals the ever-increasing po- pularity of the game.
