Women’s bowls titles
The eight teams which got through the first three postsection rounds yesterday in the Christchurch women’s bowls open fours were survivors in more ways than one. It was just on 7 p.m. when the last game ended and for those involved in the third round it was a day of between nine and 10 hours bowling, a long day even in temperatures lower than yesterday’s. But, according to one official, no-one keeled over. “It just goes to show how hardy they are,” she said. The eight skips who will be back in action at ChristchurchRichmond this morning looking for a place in the final later in the day are Altha
Triggs (Riccarton Women’s), Daphne Smith (Kia Toa, Timaru), Lex Kimber (Linwood), Mitch McDonald (Linwood), Alice Whiting (Woolston W.M.C.), Vera Truscott (St Albans), Kath Williamson (Mt Pleasant) and Vi Karaitiana (Linwood). Results of the third round were.— Mrs Triggs 24, D. Le Breton (Woolston W.M.C.) 10; Mrs Smith 23, M. Broad (Morrison Avenue) 18; Mrs McDonald 22, N. Cooke (Linwood) 17; Mrs Kimber 20, C.
