The writing was on the wall for the juniors at three quarter stage, only leading by five shots. A Sudlow and Malcomson were both all square, T Sudlow was ahead by nine and Ervine in the red by four.

The home team were far too strong for the juniors in the last six ends, going on to win by ten. Sudlow, in a low scoring game, won by two; T Sudlow’s rink, with T Ogle showing good form, had a good afternoon to win by 13, Malcomson found the home four in good form and lost by 12 and G Ervine found his opponents a hard nut to crack in the final ends and lost by 13.

The juniors are on the road again this Saturday playing Gilnahirk in Belfast . Tomorrow (Wednesday) the seniors are at home to Lisnagarvey in a league game.

The president and members of Dromore Bowling Club wish a speedy recovery to their Vice-President Tommy Hewitt, S McCrum J McCullough and J McKenny and hope that they will be well soon.
