26 unbeaten in Easter fours

Twenty-six of the 114 j teams which yesterday started in the Christchurch Bowling Centre’s ( Easter fours tourna- ; ment will enter the • fourth round of section play this morning with a j perfect record of three ' wins. i For them the prospects are i bright of securing the six j wins necessary to qualify for , a place in the post-section - draw at the Woolston . W.M.C.’s green on Monday. There will be a further three ] rounds of section play today and two tomorrow. Of the remaining 114 teams, 27 are reasonably well placed with two wins and another ; 39, which had one success]

yesterday, are in the hazard-; 1 ious position of not being able |* to afford another defeat. i For a further 22 all chance J of qualifying disappeared! 1 yesterday when they were], beaten for a third time. < Although most of the fav- ■ oured teams had satisfac- I tory records, four prominent 1 skips will need to extract thebest from their teams if they are to qualify. They are A.! 1 Memory (Woolston W.M.C.),': D. Langley (Christchurch),] who has a strong team, D. P. ■ White (Christchurch W.M.C.) and T. J. Edmonds (St Albans). Each managed only, one win yesterday.
