Sparrow (Palmerston North) managed a 6 up head in his game with R. Stewart (Takaro) as we)l as a 4 and five'3’s. Two s’s and a 4 as well as a couple of 3’s helped materially in raising a big tally for P. Skoglund when playing L. Lovelock (Palmerston North), who was allowed to score on six heads only of the 21. However, he finished up with a 4. Monks (Hokowhitu) was another to score on six heads only when engaged with J. Davidson (Terrace End), the game ending 32—8. After leading 19—10 at the 14th head, Titshall (Takaro) went down to E. D. Wycherley (Hokowhitu), 22—19. WVcherlev took all of the last seven heads. Taylor (Manawatu) took the 12th hriftd 6 up in r his game with W. Howe (Terrace End). He needed it as his opponent was just that many in the lead. A 3 pn the 13th followed by a coupled of singles then put him in front, a position which he maintained to win 22—15: J. K. Paton (Palmerston North) took the first seven heads in his' game with Henderson (Palmerston North) to lead 9—o. The latter took the eighth for 2 and then Paton rattled on a 3, a 1 and a 4 to lead 37 —2. With the sedre 21—5'at the 17th, Henderson won the last three heads to finish the gaiife 21—9. Wycherley (Hokowhitu) ran away with the first eight heads against J. Mason (Manawatu) to lead at that stage 13—0. Mason took the next four heads with singles and the rest of the game was divided. Nicholson (Dahnevirke) produced a couple of s’s arid a 4 playing against F. E. Moore (Feilding), whom he beat l 28—15. E. H. Smith (Takaro) finished up his' game with J. Melton (Northern)..xn.t(h a 6. Previously he had scored a couple of 4 P. Skoglund (Northern) sent in a card With no fewer than seven 3’s and

a J 4~in hia match with J. A.'Nash, the Centre ‘president, who-was down 19—4 * at the 12th head. Then he landed a 4 1 on the IStli and was not heard of again ■ till thb-dStlv,' which he took with a. 3.The final was 32—12. Although the finish was close, E. Arnott (Takaro) led T. Simpson (Oroua) 9—o at tho fifth. Then Simpson landed a 3 and Arnott took the seventh with a single to make him 10, after which he failed to score till the 14th, which i he took with a single, and he missed ' again : till the 38th, which ho won 5 up. This put. him one ahead, Simpson evening up on’the next. The final head decided the issue. P. J. Mailman (Gonville) led F. Harrington (Masterton) 18—6 at tho tenth and then Harrington rolled down a couple of 4’s and a single which brought the score to 18—15,.but aftci that Mailman again widened tho gap. Stewart (Takaro) essayed a lastminute recovery against Howe (Terrace End), but the margin was too wide. A 5 on the last head was a good effort. H. G. Mills (Manawatu) rolled down three 4’s in his game with B. W. Law (Oroua!, who managed one head 4 up. F. Wort (Palmerston North) and A. Williamson (Feilding) had a neck-and-ncck tussle, the lead being taken alternately by the pairs, especially at the end of the game, which went to Wort, 22—20. P.
