GLENDINNINGS QUALIFY FOR NEXT ROUND

PLAY HIGH STANDARD OF BOWLS TO CAUSE UPSET

(By "Sagax")

MISS EMMY CEPKOVA

Glendinning provided the ANOTHER- latest sensation in the local lawn bowls champion- ships when they eliminated H. Nish and A. M. TENNIS Holland from the Pairs competition on the Kow- loon Dock R. C. green yesterday afternoon.
