BOWLS
PROPOSAL FOR SENIOR PENNANTS Mr. Frank Meadowcroft, of the Kelburn Bowling Club, has given notice of motion to the Wellington Centre that he intends to move that there shall bo liraclically no limit to tlio number of rinks a club may enter in the senior pennants, always assuming that it is an even number that will make a common factor, so that there will bo no obstacle to arranging the rota of matches with other clubs. This means that a club tuay please itself whether it enters two, four, eight, twelve, or sixteen rinks. For instance, it would be competent for a club of tlio numerical strength of the Wellington Club to enter sixteen rinks —eight at home and eight away—but it might not suit smaller clubs to do so. The intention is to make the competition elastic in order to give the greatest number of players possible the opportunity of playing in the pennant games. It is understood that some half-dozen of the leading clubs are prepared to support the idea in order to see how it works out during next season.
