Exeter's two veteran bowlers, R. G. Seldon and R. N. Creeeh^who can lay claim to the win- as many trophies as any in Western Ontario, were two rinks. At the last end possibly ning of bowlers skipping Mr. Creech's rink were three shots down. Both rinks laid down a beautiful end and when the skips came to bowl the farthest bowl was not more than five feet* from the jack. Mr. Seldon’s rink was lying short an inch or so off the jack with opposing shots almost as close surrounding the jack. With the first shot Mr. 'Creech moved a bowl that was guarding the end. With his second after studying the end and calling his shot he laid up against the winning howl squeezed the jack within a feet from bowls to The rinks were: Mrs. Hopper, R. N. Creech; Mrs. Motz, George Anderson. George Layton and R. G. Seldon.
