RESUMING THE PENNANTS. THE EOTOBUA TOURNAMENT. AX T.'MriRE'S KF.SI'OXSIBILJTY.. (By TnrXDLER.) ■ \i Satiinlay tin; ponnaitt mntchrs arc In lit , resiioiefl, after sin interval of a. couple of] montlm, and it i-> only natural tlint i-liiof ititcrcht will coiitre in the HH'ctirij» <if ouc'luin,2ii niul Uelrnsvillc, owing to I.ho strong popit'nni held by the liitle club on the Kaiptmi. Tn the three rounds njrfiinpt Kdendnie, Auckland and P(Uisonl)\*, tin. , only damage they suffcicrl was a tie with i/onsoiwiy. so even h' they lost both "iinies iit'xt Saturday they would still stand at 65.7-") per cent, v.iiicli is liigher tli.m aii>' club in the ■section nt present. On the other hand, if they win both, they will be on !M.7r>, n.nkiiig it practie.nlly impossible to bo di*-plii<'P(l o?i March '2, when the ]Kist■poned first round will be plaved. The next in order are (.'arltoji, Henderson, Papatoeloe, and Albert, and- as 'Mount Albert meets C'arltoii j*»iis week, and I'apatoetoo in the roncluitrug rotiiul, CV.rlton meeting Henderson ami HelensTille in the- latter, the posit inn is decidedly iiitei'e'if.insr, provided Ouelitinjia, rati l)riiitj Helcnsville, within striking tii.-lance. In the other section the lenders are Otahiihii. Hoeky Xook, Mount Kden and West. Knd, but none of these meet each nt her till the last, round, when Rocky Nook play* Mount Eden and O tubulin Sμ this week should prepare the wav foi an interesting final round. Bell Wins at Rotorua. Another enjoyable time was spent at !Rotorilil la-it week, a feature being the large number of spectators watching the contests until the last bowl was played, in the dusk of Friday evening. Tt was « great triumph for Xorrie Bell to win in such a stirring final, and he created a new record by winning with the same link as he had last year, when in the final ho defeated C'larkson. Wishart, Ball sind Truscott (Caiiton). By last year's win be had already put up a record, "being the only skip to win tftfs popular "tournament four times, but the three previous rinks were all different players, except that Meredith was with him each time-.

Mr. 801 l paid a freneroua tribute to the runners-up. in the presence of the immense rnncourso which always pathers nt the "Rotorua finals, and crtnpratulated them on playinjr a prame ■wMcli came so close, to victory. Of course everybody knew that Mr. Harrison's team were not all Australians, any more than the other Australian team which also competed, but it was none the worse on that account, and when he returns to Sydney he will doubtless give Kucli an account of the unique function at Rotorua. that next time the Australians come here they will have lialf a dozen rinks competing, instead of two Australian skips with local men in support.

jThe interval between the Dominion tournament and Eotorn;. seems just a ■week too long to keep Australian visitors here, and when they come again, which will probably be when the Dominion tournament is in Auckland in 1031. it might bo worth considering whether it will be possible to get them a little closer together.

■• This vveek there is the annual tournament at Tauranga, and next Monday the second tournament at Kotorua begins.

Other tournaments this week are pairs «* Mamirewa and rinks at Mount Albert, fcbth on Wednedsay. wliile on Wednesday of next week there will be a rink tournament at Grey Lynn and Te Pa pa pa. Can a Dead Ball Live Again? This question was asked during the Tecent Whanjrarei tournament, and an, interested party writes for a rulin<r. In* the first place there is no such thinp as a ball in the «;ame of bowls, for a bowler plays with a bowl, not a ball. As it Jiappeiied,^however, as one can gather from the context, in the account of the incident, it was a jack that was in question, not a bowl. The jack hit the 'hank, outside the peg and rebounded into the. rink, the umpire ruling it dead. That umpire was in error: The jack Tva.s alive. The question does not really require a ruling, for rule 52 is quite distinct, that "if the jack be driven by • bowl in play against the bank and rebound on to the green, within the limits of the rink, it is alive." An addition wan made to this rule in 102r>, hut it does not affect this particular incident.

The umpire cannot he condemned for Tiot knowing the rule, for probably there ere- not half a dozen people in the Dominion who know them all, but he is to Ibe censured for giving a decision without consulting his book o.; : rules, a very common failing with umpires, for they Usually very foolishly act on the assumption that they know the rules off by heart. As this is almost an imposeible feat, they need not be ashamed to consult the rules, and that would prevent them doing an injustice to a competitor, besides exposing them to the criticism of those who hear about it afterwards.

Probably many people are misled bv thinking that "burned" and "dead" mean the same thing, but if they will read rule* CT> to 72, all treating on tbi.s point, they will see numerous eases where a bowl or jack ran be burned, and yet be alive. The other traps into which people often fall is in thinking that a bowl or jack is dead as soon as it goes outside the rink, liko the case at Whangarei, hut rule r>4, although not treating on this particular movement, shows that this point was not overlooked, for it contains the clause: "Shall be alive, notwithstanding that during its course it went beyond the side limits of the rink."
