The records made by Kingston bowlers at the'various tournaments during the season have been the envy of friendly bowlers in other places. Another brilliant showing was made by E. Green and W. N. Linton gt the Dominion Bowling Association tourn- ament held in Toronto this week. I the doubles, Mr. Green and Mr Tins ton won eight consecutive games--a remarkable feat in the Play against the most skillful bowlers in Ontario ~--and at seven o'clock on Thursday evening they met their first defeat at Granite green. Their playing through- out was marked by well-handled bowls and brainy manoeuvres, and their defeat at the last was largely accounted for by the change from Ceznada green to Granite &reen. How- ever, they were awarded the third prize and are to be congratulated on their attempts. With 19¢ teams play- ing in the tournament, they demon- monstrated exceptionally brilliant bowling. -------- BASEBALL ON THURSDAY A ---- International League Newark 4, Syracuse 1 (first game.)
