enthusints into Goderich en the

Mitchell, Seefortb, Clinton,
Exeter, Wingham,Lucknow and'
Teeswater' - toname a few.'
There, is an old saying among
lawn bowlers
, . which probably
goes ' back to the days of air
Francis Drake; an avid bowler,
which claims "without optimism
you haven't much to look
forward to".
This optimistic view was
certainly taken by the greens
committee headed, by Earl
Allison and his worthy assistant
Lee Ryan. When they cut the
grass -on -two -large greens 'and --
then rolled it in the rain - the
players, . of course, were under
cover in the Club House.
The Goderich Merchants and
Manufacturers Tournament is'
the largest of its kind north of
London and has attracted a
very large attendance of out of
town ' bowlers for almost 20
years. The tournament is run in
two flights, or draws, the first at
10:30. a.m. followed by the
second flight at 12.°00 noon, with
a total of three games for each
flight;' which should ' complete
the tournament around 8.00
