Also Wondering

Lawn bowlers in Shanghai are also wondering why the First Interport played last Sun- day was allowed to be tied, instead of an extra head boing played.

The N.C.D. News, com- menting on the result, says:

"The fact that the game ended in a draw has given rise to considerable comment as the general impression among local lawn bowlars was that in the ovent of a tie in any of the actual Interport series an extra end, or ends, would be played so that a definite conclusion could be reached, this having been done a few years ago when the Hongkong team were visitors to Shanghai. If Shanghai win one of the next two matches and Hongkong the other the series will result in a draw, the way matters now stand. The reason why the extra end was not played is awaited in Shanghal with great interest."
