It is not given to dignified humanity to be in two places at the same time and it is, there- fore, impossible to gauge accurately the relative standard of the bowls reproduced in the two. semi-final matches played yesterday afternoon in the Open, Rinks Championship. But it is dif ficult to imagine that the fixture between the two Club de Recreio rinks on the Kowloon Bow- ling Green Club could have been anything like the disappointing display that was seen on the Civil Service C.C. green where a Kowloon C.C. rink was trounced by a strong Kowloon B.G.C. four.
