BOWLING TITLES

DOMINION TOURNEY RINKS CHAMPIONSHIP NINETEEN TEAMS BEMAIN CHAMPION FOUR BEATEN PLAY IN OTHEK EVENTS * The annual tourney conducted by the New Zealand Bowling Association was continued yesterday. Further games in- the inter-section rounds of the singles and pairs championships were pla\*ed„ and the post-section rounds in the full-rink championship were commenced. All the games were played on the greens of the Carlton Club. /

The playing surfaces were of high excellence, and, giving consideration to the continued dry spell, it may be said with accuracy that the past reputation gained for excellent greens was fully maintained. The pace of the surfaces was not as extremely fast as some of the greens upon which the section games were quartered. Nevertheless the surfaces provided were completely in keeping with the staging of the largest bowling tourney yet held in the Dominion. The sensation of the day in the full rinks championship was the defeat of the present holders of the title, G. Dickson, F. Redpath, H. F. Gibson, H. Wilson, of the Linwood Club, Christchurch. They won the game against M. Walker, Auckland, by 22 to 8, but were defeated by Livingstone, Onehunga, 19 to 17, and Graham, Carlton, 23 to 13. T. Buxton, Dr. P. Moir, H. C. Clarke, S. Jenkin, of the Carlton Club, remain undefeated in toth the section and post-section rounds, gaining the distinction of being the osjly team to ,;win all 'eleven successive games. Play will be resumed in the pairs and singles championships as the players left in are released from the eliminating rounds of the rinks championship.
