OMAR CARRIES JACK & HONGKONG TO VICTORY

BOWLS INTERPORT WON AFTER TERRIFIC STRUGGLE

SHANGHAI BEATEN BY HONGKONG SKIPPER'S BRILLIANT SHOT

GAME'S AMAZING FLUCTUATIONS

HONGKONG yesterday won the lawn bowls in-

terport against Shanghai, when, after a game of amazing fluctuations in the course of which Hong- kong led 18-6 on the fourteenth head, and were 'them-' selves led by 20-18 at the 19th, U.M. Omar, the visitor's gallant skipper, snatched a glorious shot with a fast drive which carried the jack, and with it the Interport honours of 1932.

The Hongkong team played well to a man, but it was Omar's steadiness in the critical stages, when Shanghai made a bold bid to rob Hongkong of the second match, which turned the tide in favour of the visitors. Shanghai has never seen finer skippering Ithan that demonstrated by Omar.

Shanghai, Sept. 19.

In the same way as they had matched victory "yesfer- day, the Hongkong bowls team to-day took the second interport contest from Shang- hai, thus securing the rubber. Hongkong won the match by one shot at the last end-21 to 20-after one of the finest game ever seen in Shanghai, Omar again won the match, giving the spectators thrill after thrill with brilliant shots.

There was a large crowd at the Wayside Park and the green splendid but the sun bothered players somewhat.

the

Omar's driving shuts were very deadly and he took care that when his men had their shots that they guarded, while Shanghai lost mainly through not guarding.

In the first three quarters of the game, Shanghai was outplayed. At the fourteenth end the score was 18/0 in favour of Hongkong und from the eighth to the fourteenth Shanghai had not scored. Then, from the fourteenth they took the next five with a single, two fours, a three and a two, making the score 20/18 in favour of Shanghai.

At the twentieth, Hongkong scored two, making the tally 20 all. At the inst end, Raitt, with his second got n lucky wick to lay his shot and the game looked won for Shanghai, but Omar came up with a fast one, enrrying jack to the ditch and laying hia shot,

This was loudly cheered. Dunlop was short with his first, while the Becond went into the ditch and the game was lost.
