Those who took part were: Bob Lawton, Lars Carlson, President Bob Williams, Laurence Goddard, A1 Cuthbertson, Eric Barr and Jack Munday. 20 YEARS AGO -- At Richmond Hill Lawn Bowling Club, the Savage Trophy was won by the Bowmanville Mixed Trebles team of Mervyn Brock (skip), Norman Brock and Clarence Oke. 10 YEARS AGO -- Despite the efforts of Bowmanville Merchants' Mike Cornell, Murray O'Brien and John Stainton, the Western All-Stars were unable to contain the East in the annual EOBA all-star game in Port Hope.
