• (By Bill ;Hart)
The first bewling of the season was
done on. Wednesday evening when an.
Open men's twilight touranrcent was
held. There wasan entry of sixteen
rinks. ,This..is not large, but consid-
ering the backward season, • it •was
felt to be a good showing. The greens
were' heavy for the first game, but
got keener as the evening wore oil.
Out of town rinks were from Gode-
,rich, 'MitChell and Stratford. Homer

for the evening, teamed up with Chad,

valued members of the club will, be
greatly missed at the bowling green,
the late John J. Cluff. He was devot-
ed to the game and attended nearly
every tournament in tciwn, arid quite
a few out of town. .Win or lose, his.
heart was in the game.
The bowlers, represented ,by John
McKenzie and W: M. Hart, asked the
town council at the regular meeting
on Monday evening,' to consider re-
pairing and painting' the fence -along
