BOWLS Manning Cup And Three Fours Games Commenced

The first rounds of the Christ church Bowling Centre’s Three Fours and Manning Cup competitions were decided on Saturday.

The Three Fours games were played in the morning. This year more teams are taking part, as I clubs are able to enter two [teams instead of one in the past. 1 Conditions in the morning were [vastly better than in the afterInoon. and in the Three Fours games some excellent bowling was seen Barrington, last year's winner, beat Sydenham 65-51 Much of the credit for this comfortable win went to D. Joseph, who beat A. Smith 25-13. In the afternoon spots of ram fell on many of the greens, and a cold wind made conditions unpleasant. In the late afternoon some of the games finished in steady rain. The cold wind and dull afternoon slowed many of the greens considerably, and many players could not adjust themselves to the changed conditions when playing into the wind. However, some fine bowling was seen, with some excellent heads. Results were:—
