Hillicr (Port Chalmers), J. M'Lachlan (Fairfield), and S.. Roberts (Wakari). To enable all tire Champion of Champion matches being played on one green to-day the Caledonian Green will bo divided into nino rinks. This will considerably circumscribe the .usual p'aying area for each rink, and as the sizo of tho green is only 110 ft by 105 ft, this division may possibly caiKo somo inconvenience-. The final for tho ftoslyn Singles Championship was played off last evening between G. Wedderspoon and 15. ll.' Fountain, tho late winning by 3 points. Wodderspoon went away with a good lead in tho first few heads, the score standing 10 to 3, but Fountain gradually overhauled him and won by 19 to 16. Tho Cavurshaan Singles Championship was also decided last evening, when A. King defeated J. M'Lachlan. The final for tho Singles Championship of tho Dunedm dub was a most interesting contest throughout, and the result was in doubt right up to playing the last bowl. The game was ono of 21 points up. and Bcntley lay gamo with his last bowl, but Gale's wood was in such a position that had ho sneccdod : n trailing the jack a little he would have scored the necessary four' points which required to win, tho scores standing—Bcntley 20, Gtiln 17. As it was lie mifsod the white, and Bontlcy lav the shot, thus winning by 4 points. Tho St. Kilda Green is to be closed for tho season on April 1, and will be lopd rased and rosown tho following week.
