BOWLING.

Saturday was an ideal day for bowling, and devotees of the game could be counted by hundreds. It was a case of the green being full with all the clubs.

Over at Devonport I noticed veteran Tait stacking up a pile of points. He had the biggest score of the afternoon among the blue and whites, despite a couple sent up by him with the wrong bias. Even the very elect sometimes mistake which Jack they are playing at.

Should a player at any of the greens feel like sending along a few notes concerning his club’s doings, they will be welcome.

Armstrong and Mason were not allowed to hold the Noton Stars very long over at Devonport. Mitchell and Grattan blew them out at the first pop after a keen fight, as the score 17 —15 shows.

C. Baker, Seabrook, Garland, and Hudson (skip) used to wear the Nicholson Feathers, but they don’t now. Millar, Lathersail, Brookes, and Surman (skip) got in 23 to 19 on Saturday at Mt. Eden, and Hudson’s crew were left lamenting.

Crowhurst, Thomas, Ledingham and Co. are touring the greens just now The Aucklanders are a fairly hot combination and are open to play anyone. Don’t all speak at once.
