BOWLING.
By Telegraph—Press Association. AUCKLAND, October 20. The bowlers selected to join in the projected visit to Sydney haye been asked to discuss the advisableness of increasing ithe number of players to go on the tour. The management, it is understood, has received a dozen or. so applications for positions in the combination, and it is considered desirable to rescind the resolution previously carried limiting the number of players to 26. As an indication of the interest that has been created in the' trip, it may be mentioned that only two of the original 26 players selected have .failed to deposit the necessary guarantee of good faith, and these through unforscen circumstances having arisen. All the greens are in a backward state owing to the recent unfavourable weather. Arrangements for the North Island Bowling Tournament, to be held in Auckland in January next, are well advanced, and a successful meeting is anticipated. The Auckland. Grafton, Ponsonby, Rernuera and Carlton Club's greens have been set aside for the tournament. The pairs and singles matches will be played on the one green. Reports received from the South indicate that much interest has been aroused in the tournament, and a large contingent of visitors is expected.
