KOWLOON DOCKS BRING OFF UPSET OF WEEK BY DECISIVE WIN OVER K.B.G.C. "B" Craigengower Well Placed For Senior Championship

BY "L. G."

The unexpected defeat of the Champlons, RECREIO "A", last Saturday at the hand of the Police has placed CRAIGENGOWER in a very favourable position for the title. Craigengewer brought off their eighth consecutive win in nine matches when they defeated Kowloon C in an away match. Another upset wrs recorded in last week's bowls programme. Kowloon Docks decisively beating How- Joon Bowling Green "B" at Austin Road,

Recreto "A" came a cropper at Happy Valley where their very much depleted rinks (a handful of their regulars not being able to turn out for them, presumably on account of Volunteer duties) lost to the Police by 18 slots. For the Police, skip J.S. Fender record- ed the biggest rink win. He beat Carlos Silva by 23 shots. J. Shep- herd and Raoul Luz had an bateresting tussle which went to the Fo- hee skip by the narrowest possible margin.

Goodwin lost Silva by six shots though he earn to C. Gowland by four shots, ed for his rink a bottle of John Halg whiskey as the result of a seven scored in the course of the

The fact that Kowloon Docka not only won but won decisively on al rinks came as a great sur- prise to all bowls followers. Add to this the fact that the game was the played at Austin Road and result is not only surprising. It is Incredible! But that they deserved It on the day's play is never to be doubted

The rinks they had last Saturday were fairly unrecognisable from those they had the week before against Craigengower. Kowloon Docks' aggregate of 82 shots last Saturday was the highest for the afternoon, but they shared this 'credit with Craigengower who also had the same aggregate. However, Kowloon Docks had the bigger win margin, beating Kowloon Bowling Green "B" by 40 shots,
