“WELL BOWLED”
PRESENT TO GRIMMETT SOUVENIR FROM HIS HOME TOWN Press Association. DUNEDIN, To-day. C. V. Grimmett, the international cricketer, should have pleasant memories of his visit to his native town. To mark the occasion the cricketers of Dunedin have purchased for him a handsome souvenir, which will be handed to him at the Carisbrook ground. The souvenir is of a novel character. On a greenstone base three stumps—all being knocked back—are shown, with balls lying on the ground, and on a stretch of silver wicket are inscribed the words. “Well bowled.” The coat of arms of Dunedin and a silver fern are also displayed on the souvenir, the fern bearing the inscription: “To C. V. Grimmett, from the cricketers of his native city.”
