Champion-of-Champion Four

Play in the Nelson Bowling Centre champion-of-champions' tournament was taken to the semi-finals in matches played recently. The semifinals and finals will be played probably after Easter.

A larger-than-life size Ted Clark takes aim while playing for Ngawhatu at Wakefield.

Jim White and Mick Westrupp look anxious but Phyllis Westrupp can see the funny side.

An unusual-looking board we thought might interest bowlers. Perrone beat Wads-worth. on the last end 30-27, but the remarkable point is that Wadsworth scored on only seven ends.

Riwaka four: Bruce Rowling, Syd Young, Merv Edwards and Vern Edwards (s) lost to Perrone's four.

Ready for battle at Wakefield, the Tahuna and Pohara fours, Ted Fayen, Tim Riordan, Charles Buchan, Ken Chappell, Ced Marshall, Ross Harding, Hemi Grant (Tahuna skip) and Lyell Winter (Pohara skip, who won).

Bowler through the elbow - a shot taken during the quarter-finals at the Tahuna rink.

More anxious moments for Keith Inwood and Mac McDonald (Brightwater) and Alec Mann (Takaka) at Wakefield.

The Nelson club four: Tom Shaw, Andy Hedwig, Mace Allen and Ted Buswell (s) lost to Mapua. The victors over Nelson club in the quarter-finals: Reg Ralfe, John Dodds, Lindsay Evans and Mick Kinzett (s), of Mapua (below centre).

The Maitai four: Ant Garguilo, Joe Garguilo, Frank Pricolo and Frank Perrone (s) go into the semi-finals.
