BOWLING

At the last annual meeting of th© \\cst Coast Bowling Centre held at Grey mouth in February at least it will be tvmemb.red that a deadlock occurred., following the ruling out of order by the Chairman, of a motion moved by a Denniston delegate to r.tnove the headquarters ol the Centre from Greymouth to Westport, follow ng which a rnot,on that the next bus.ness be taken, was negatived, and the nice ing d sp-rsed, without any further business being transacted. As the following result of the desire to remove the headquarters to Westport, the various Clubs in the Bulkr district hive de.ided to secede from the W est Coast Centre presumably. to form a Centre in the Bull r d strict.

The follow ng nor fieri lion has been; •• received by 'Mr A. A. Adams, Secretary of the 'West Coast Bowling Centre ;

We, the undersigned Bowling Clubs,, herewith withdraw our affiliation from the West Coast Bowling Centre: — 'Westport Bowling Club, (sigmd) W. Stevens, President, ‘Davd H.

FOx, President, R, ,W, Mikkelsptt, Secretary, - - The decision of the Bullet; Clubs m one that will ,be generally regretted, as it will tend to spoil the re-union of bowlers at the annual .tournament, which is held at the various centres each following year, and has in the past made a great bond of union among Coastal players, most of whom look forward with the keenest of interest to these gatherings.
