BOWLING.
WELLINGTON GREENS
The city bowling greens are beckoning a lively welcome to the followers of ‘‘kitty,” says the ‘‘Dominion,” and their custodians are busily engaged in working up the sward to that desirable pitch of perfection so soothing to the spring-tim© bowler. Both the Wellington and Kelburne Clubs have decided to open their greens for play on Saturday, October 2. The list of clubs owing allegiance to the local centre has been added to by the admittance of the Te Hiwi Club, which experts in Maori nomenclature will quickly recognise as neither more nor less than the Hill Club. This is a little club initiated by the veteran bowler Mr. Charles Hill, who has a cosy four-rink green on his estate at Island Bay, where many local bowlers have enjoyed some delightful games from time to time. “Te Hiwis” will doubtless be heard of at tournament time, as the door has opened wide for all to enter in. the Northern Bowling Association’s tournament to be held here in January next.
