CHAMPIONS STILL IN THE LEAD

High Scoring Bowls

TO-DAY'S PROSPECTS

BY SHORT HEAD"

Several high scoring matches were registered last week in the Lawn Bowls, Leagues which culminated in the K.C.C.'s. rink comi- posed of G. Lee, R. G. Craig, F. Goodwin and A. Hyde-Lay (skip) securing a possible against the C.C.C. "B's" quartette (J. R. Soares, W. K. Way, K. M. Omar and W. Gill (skip). Sixes were also quite prominent. The results of the matches came off very much as ex- pected with the Senior Champions still in the lead.

Word has been received from the Shanghal Lawn Bowls Asso- ciation inviting the Local Assvelation to send a team up North for the Annual Interport. The subject as well as the draws for the first round of the Open Singles Championship were with by the Sub-Committee last night at a meeting.

Luz was not the same bowls play- er of fast year. He has deteriorated"

on Saturday a great deal, and though he was having the upper hand at the commencement the score was fled at the second last head. Luz was lying one up with first delivery when with" his his next he made an inexcusable blun- der to allow Dallah to collect three points and in the last head Dáltan ably supported by his men added another point to win the match by four sho15.

U. M. Omar's four had matters very much their way. In fact the display given by A. R Minu was julte up to standard, but he was overshadowed." The Indians' skip played quite well up to a certain he point and invariably when found himself up against a bad count he lost heart and did not attempt in the least to draw or try to avert a bad slip. Mint is too much of a temperamental play- er: I doubt whether he will ever make a successful skip. A six was allowed Omar's four in this match. The C.C.Cs. quartette played well and ́as far as Mint's rink concerned he was very poorly sup- ported except by J. Hodsen who more than held his own against Summons. Both A. K. Minu and A. "

H. Rumjahn were deplorable.

R. Basa's four must be feeling pretty elated by the 21 shots vic- tory over Madar's rink which in- cidentally included a six I do not think that any of the Indian players was up to scratch and with Basa playing as well as ever on that day the result was never in doubt. M. R. Abbas played a good game and was a tower of strength playing as No. 1.

POLICE SURPRISED

The Civil Servants surprised their neighbour the Police when they won a well merited match by the lucky 13 shots. The game was not without its thrills and excitement. In fact so close was the scoring that two rinks tied with 25 shots. In this respect both W. E. Hollands and J. Hollidge the respective skips were seen to great advantage with their masterly bowling and given the maximum of support by their respective men it was indeed re-. freshing to see that high standard of bowls attained.

W. Mair had the better of the arguments over J. W. Deakin when the Police second rink won by two #hots. There was very little to choose between these two rinks, Things were going smoothly all along with points being added up first by one and then by the other rink, Eventually Mair with the aid

of his No. 3, A. E. Carey managed to outsmart the C.8.C.C.a second quartette..

The ultimate result in this game was, centred on the third rink where. F. Jones and his men had the advantage over J. Shepherd's four, The Policemen were either feeling stale or else they must have struck a bad patch from the way. they played on Saturday. Jonca was'in irresistable form and he and hits men ran out winners by 15 shots.

RECREIO DAZZLING

Club de Recreio terally swept the board in their match against Kowloon Docks, winning by no less than 27 shots, H. A. Alves, C. Silva and F. X. da Silva were all in form and one and all came aut with colours flying. F. X. da Silva's four had the biggest mar- gin, winning by 17 shots. R. Lapsley gave C. G. Silva a very close run for the honours and although bea- ten he was not disgraced.

SECOND WIN

Kowloon Bowling Green won their second match of the Season on Saturday at the expense of Tal- koo Docks. The biggest margin of the day went to R. Duncan's four when they trounced W. Welr's quartette to the tune of 20 shots. Duncan was playing as well as ever and the support which he received from his other men spelt danger and disaster to his opponents.

A good game was witnessed when W. Macfarlane (K.B.G.) went down to R. Wallace (Talkoo) in a game) where fluctuations swayed. The game was very well contested and every shot that was given away had a lot of good bowls in it. Although the score was 22 shots to 18 in fa- vour of Taikoo in this rink, the standard of bowls served was high indeed.
