Skips Of Interport Fours Should Have Voice

(By "Sagax")

There is nothing further about the arrangements for the forthcoming Interport Lawn Bowls matches with Shanghai towards the end of our season as there has not yet been sufficient time in which to receive a reply from the North. The results of last Friday's meeting have been communicated to the Shanghai Lawn Bowls Association and as soon as a definite reply is received as to the date of the arrival in the Colony of the Northerners a programme will be drawn up.

As intimated last Saturday thord: is little to ndd to what had appeared ( in the Fress of the meeting, but there in one thing I would like to say about the Selection Committee. At pre- sent the commiller contzina the names of many well-known bowlers in the
