TAURAXGA CLUB CHAMPION SINGLES The semi-finals and finals for the Tauranga Bowling Club's Champion Singles were played on Saturday and some very good bowling was seen. The semi-final between S. A. Woods and A. Bell, both one-lifers, was a very good game, but S. A. Woods won with a good margin, the score being Woods 17, Bell 11. The final game between E. P. C. Jury, the only two-lifer, and S. A. Woods, one-lifer, was very closely contested and on the 21st head they tied. On the 2 2nd head Woods was laying shot, but Jury killed it, so another head was played.
