ONTARIO Thomas Richard Henry who writes a really delightful and refreshing column in the Toronto Telegram last week had the following comments on the game of bowling, which we reproduce for the benefit of old and new bowlers and all interested in this splendidi summer pastime. “Lawn bowling is played on lush green grass during the month of Juneâ€"and on the foundation of this green grass during July, August and September. The game is played either with bowls of composition ruiblber, or spherical wooden balls somewhat re- sembling howls. It is a convention among- ‘bowlersi using these wooden iballs to say that they prefer them. At least they say this until such times as they feel like sacrificing thirty odd‘ dollars to acquire a set of lborwls. Naturally bowlers with composition bowls never believe them. Game of Lawn Bowling ( Has Many Attractions! Bowling is a conglomeration of de- mocratic and- aristocratic tendencies. It is democratic because it happens to be the only place you can barwl‘ out your ‘looss, a clergyman, a tax: collector, or the leading citizen inl your neighborhood and get away‘ with it, if he happens to be playing on your team.’ It is aristoaratic beâ€" cause the caste system is ‘igiidly enâ€" > forced. The s‘ki‘rps are the aristo- cravts. The vice-skips are yes men. The leads and! seconds are the humâ€" ble Underlings, who take all. the or- ders,- never voice an opinion- when their betters are d‘iscussmg strategy, keep off the green except when told to 'bowl â€" and do 'mOSt of the bolwlm l ing \Most of the art of being a skip or a vice-skip lies in keeping the leads from suspecting that they do most of the lei-ng, because as soon as a lead suspects that he can iboiwl he wants to be a skip v and is practically ruined as a lead. It is necessary to keep these leads in subjection *becau-se cibviously all the {bowlers cannot ’be skips. Besides skill in ‘bowling has little to do vith the art of skipping a rink. Skipping consists chiefly in pre- serving the illusion! that skips were onc: superb leads and were promot- ed; contemplating complicated shots»; complaining about short bowls; and‘ being able to roll a bowl the length 01‘ the green so that it will thump around the 'bowls that the leads and the seconds have been able to place around‘ the jack. A skip should! never, under any consideration, attempt to lead. This is important. Put a Skip leading and the results might undermine the whole discipline of bowling. In bowling you must make allow- ance for the “bias.” This is called To always complain about short lboiwl‘s is very important in skipping a rink. It works something like this. The skip will say to his vice: “I will come up thwugh this port with a slight overdraw, kissing- this bowl, wining' off this one, and! hit- ting this Ibowl dead‘ centre. That will squeeze out the shot bowl and‘ leave us counting five.” And the contrite lead who left the short; bowl in: the draw, will feel that he will have to go- on leading for another seven years to live down the disgrace of having spoiled a perfect shot by putting a [bowl in his .slkip’s eye. If the green is should inform their are always 'bowling ties on a “heavy” they do their best “keen” green. If the green is keen, they should announce their preference for a “heavy” green. Since a green is always “keen” or “heavy” this alibi answers for every occasion. “taking the green,” and Is more im- portant in howling than “wearing the green” is in Ireland. " Since the days of Sir Francis Drake, skips have been warning About the only alibi lea-dis and second's_need put fovwardI is the green. If he is a good skip he will then rush up the green and\ complain 'bit- terly about a front bowl in the draw. “It got right in mv eve.” he will Deliberater he walks in front to confirm his judgment from anothex- angle.

Bowling teams consls doulbles, trelbles and 1 make the mest reason‘a their the cause there are more people to share the blame. Next to getting your bowl‘ close to the cat, stance is albout the most imâ€" portant thing- in delivering- the b0wI. There are about 13 reCOgnized stances and 65 that are practised but are not recognized. The three most common of. the re- cognized stances are: Firstâ€"“The step and roll." This permits several variations from a little prance like a Greek aesthetic dance to the first six steps of a. run- ner starting a hundredâ€"yard dash. Some bowlers finish the dash, but the correct follow through to this stance is a Statue of Liberty pose, with the body inclined.l rig-idly in the direction you hope the bowl will curve.

Gra- ham, Peel agricultural representative proved popular: Douglas Palmer, Richmond Hill, stood* in first place. Other winners were: Second, Doug- las Jefferson, Malton; 3, Carman Third is “the shudder” in which the 'borwler imitates a person con- stricted by a spasm of great pain at the height of which the bowl is snapped away with a convulsive jerk.

As a point of aimx some bowlers take a mark on the bank, some a mark on the grass beside the jack, some aim at the North Star regard- less of the direction they are how]- ing, and some just shut their eyes, deli‘ver the bowl, and hope for the best.

So far We have outlined specific conventions that have been left out of all the rule books. Taking the game generally it has many attractions. It can .stir up more gossip than a sewing circle andI more .Squabfbles than a sand lg baseball game between 'teen age boys. Rivalry is not as keen as between dictators. We have wever met a skip who would sacrifice more than his right r arm to win a bowfinvg game. Greenkeep-ers smoke innumerable cigars on the optimism of new bowl- ers that they have developed: to the stage where they can beat the greenkeeper in six endxs. We have never seen a greenkeeper buying cigars. Practically all classes had been completed when heavy rain fell at Claireville during the annual spring fair last Wednesday. The show was acclaimed as the equal of any during the fair's 53 year history and offiâ€" cials were gratified to observe a higher standard in the cattle section in response to a higher prize list. The attendance was reported as re- cord breaking. No concessions were alloWed on the grounds this, year so the stock exhibits would have unâ€" divided attention. It has possibilities of better sport than deer shooting, because there '5 no closed season for game (com- mittees). ‘Taking it all in all, lawn' bowling is quite a gameâ€"and speaking perâ€" sonally we would rather give up eat- ing; than give up howling."
