At Kowloon F.C.

Guest-Madar Win On Extra Head

TWO MATCHES in the Open Pairs Lawn Bowls Cham pionship wero played yesterday, one at the Kowloon Football Club and the other at the Police R. C. In the first, T. A. Madar and A. E. P. Guest beat V. C. Dixon and H. E. Drew 21-20 on the extra head played, while in the second U. A, and A. H. Rumjahn casily beat C. F. Needham and A, Brooksbank 24-14.

The Kowloon F.C. rame definitely the better of the two. Guest and Madar got away to a fine start and had scored 9 shiols before Dixon and Drew, registered a single. From 9-1 the score went to 12-4, at which period Dixon and Drew scored 3, 0, 3 and 4 to take the lead at 24-13!

The green was on the fast side, and both the Bowling Green players had its measure. But once more the Kowloon C.C. combination shot off into a lead that seemed to put the odds much in their favour when they registered 1, 3 and 2 to lead (0): 19-14 on the 17th end.

Two 2's, however. brought Drew and partner back into the fray, leav-. ing them one shot behind on the 19th end. A single for the K.C.C. and then 2 for the Bowling Green players put them on level terms at 20-all on the 21st head.

The extra head opened tensely. Dixon drew three fine woods to the Jack for a count of three, but with his last, Guest edged in a beauty to claim the lie.

THE FEATURE of the big American Indoor Games series The skips went down but Drew held recently was the continuance of the extraordinary miling pet up in recent years by Cunningham, Bonthron, Venzke and Romani, with a new quartette of youngsters in Leslie Mac Mitchell, Walter Mehl, John Munski and Charles Fenske.
