"WICK'S" BOWLS NOTES

Excellent League Record For Craigengower

U. M. Omar's Rink Still Undefeated: Police May Gain Promotion

Rink Semi-finals Next Week

CONGRATULATIONS to Craigengower C.C. on winning the championship of the First Division League, which they last won in 1936. Needing four points to place themselves out of reach, they scored a clean-sweep victory over Civil Service C.C. on the latter's green on Saturday.

That theirs is the best team in the League this season nobody will deny. In their 15 matches played to date, they have sustained only four rink defeats, with 40 victories and a tie. One of their rinks, U. M. Omar's, have not lost a single game. All in all, a very good record indeed,

In the Second Division, Crni-{ gengower C.C. did Kowloon Football Club a great favour by their overwhelming victory over Kowloon Tong at Happy Valley.

The Kowloon Tong men, who' were at the head of the League Table only three weeks ago, were beaten on all rinks and, inving

dropped 13 points in their last three games, are now no fewer than eight points behind Kowloon F.C.

With each of the two rival teams having three matches to play-one of which Is their return game- Kowloon Football Club would seem to be in an almost impregnable posi- tion. It they can win their twe matches, they can afford losing to Kowloon Tong.

Though in only third position at the moment in the Third Division League Table, Police R.C. have a beller than ever chance of return ing to the Second Division next year.
