A combined meeting of the Executive and Tournament Committee of the Cambridge Bowding Club was held on Wednesday night. The secretary reported that although it was nearly six months to the Easter tournament there w r ere 42 entries in hand, leaving only 12 vacancies. The committee was greatly concerned about the matter, as it was realised that quite a number of regular and popular patrons had not yet entered. ■lt was decided to close the tournament when full, it being proved that this was the most satisfactory system. It was agreed, after some discussion, .to adopt the two-life system in the post section play of the tournament. Personnel of Teams.
