BOWLING.

The windy nature of the weather interfered considerably with good bowling on the local green on Saturday. Notwithstanding this, however, a good afternoon was spent in getting off the fixture, England v. Scotland. From the outset, with the exception of one rink, it appeared as though the sons of Scotia would suffer a very severe defeat. Their national pluck came to their aid, however, and they put up a good fight, being eventually beaten by 20 points. Of the six rinks played, England won 4 and Scotland 2. The following are the detailed scores. ' Rink 1. — England — Pawson, Saphir, Cohen, Rodwell 20, v. Scotland — Cresswell, Braik, Murray (W. H.), Ross 14.
