Unfounded Fears

Fears Of Entries Falling Off

Excellent League Games On Week-end Programme

A HARDY LOT though I know local lawn bowlers to be, I thought, when the heavy rain fell at lunch time on Saturday, that all matches in the League would have to be cancelled; but I was mistaken. Three clubs defied the sodden greens and the threatening weather, and three junior matches were decided.

Perhaps the most interesting-certainly the closest —was that in the Third Division between Indian R.C. and Kowloon B.G.C. Hitherto undefcated, the Indians lost by two shots after an encounter in which the issue was in doubt until the very last head.

The visitors arrived at Soo-j A. E. Contes, A¦ R. Dallah, R. F. da kunpoo three men short, and it Laz. It. Duncan, A. Hyde-Lay was just as well for them that A. J. Hall, F. X. M. da Silva and C.

It is peculiar, but nevertheless true, that McNeill, normally the best of the three commandeered players, was the worst on the day's play Using stronge woods, he failed to settle down. Peckham was steady at No. 1, but the "boy" was positive». ly brint after a shaky start,
