BOWLING.

The last of the centre fixtures was played on March 22nd when, in a three rink game, ! Cromwell beat Alexandra by 13. Cromwell, with one loss, win the Shield, Clyde being runners-up, with two losses. A Clyde rink 'O’Connell, Eiordan, H. Stevens and Miller) had a game for the Jolly against the holders (White, Buchanan, Dingwall and WDonnelly) at Roxburgh on Tuesday last. The challengers looked like winning on the 12th head when they Jed by 15 to 5. but the holders then got a seven- Donnelly made three of it with his first and Miller drove taking out second and third shot, but he also took out two of his own. Donnelly then played a nice shot, pushing through Clyde's second shot and getting seven. It was 18 all on the 19th head, when* Roxburgh got two. Miller burned the next, and on the last head when the skips went back the holders were lying one. Attempting to rest the shot bowl lor a couple he was a bit narrow and promoted one of Roxburgh’s into shot. With bis last Miller played for a trail for 3, but was wide, and it wss all over. The above should have been the last Jolly match for the season, but Roxburgh accepted a challenge from an Alexandra rink. The match came oil'on Saturday, the holders retaining the trophy by 20. DUNEDIN VISIT.

Central bowlers look forward with pleasure to the annual visit of the Dunedin Centre team, for the good and sufficient reason that they arc invariably a jolly lot of fellows whom it is good to meet, both on and off the green. Last week’s visit proved as enjoyable as ever. Tho visitors won the match against the Centre at Clyde, while in club matches they won against Lawrence, Millers Fla% .Roxburgh, Wanaka and Cromwell-Ban-nockburn ; Clyde, Ranfurly, and Alexandra being the only clubs to defeat them. In addressing tire gathering at Clyde Mr W. Henaghan congratulated the Central clubs on the wonderful improvements in the greens. The players that visited Wanaka considered the green there as gooafas the Calie. On Thursday night they were entertained at Clyde at a euchre party and dance.
