Sport Promiiri to Occupy Important Place Among Indoor Amusement IlereHucli Interest Shown. HE game of carpet bowl ing promises to occupy an important place among indoor amusements here, judging from the interest aroused at its recent in troduction by Golf Professional Donald Ross. The game is an indoor adaptation of the ancient out-door pastime "bowling on the green'" and is most fascinating, arousing interest among a wide range of people. In brief the game is to place the bowls (balls), within the tee (a, 15 incli circle,) each ball remaining in this position at the end of the game counting one point. The distance of the hog score (no count) from the tee to be 4 feet 6 inches, (c) The length of the carpet shall be 21 loot from playing end of the carpet to centre of tee. Two (a)Every bowl shall be eligible to count which is not clearly outside the 15 inch circle, (b) Each bowl past the tee and outside the 15 inch circle to be considered out of play and laid oil" the rink, (c) Each bowl shall be a how which does not entirely clear the score, and must be removed from the rink, but no bowl to be considered as such which has struck another bowl lying in position. Three All matches to be of a certain number of heads, (rounds) or otherwise by time or shots, as may be arranged. Four Every rink (side) to be coin posed of four players a side, each player using two bowls. The rotation of play observed during the first head of the game to remain unchanged. Five The skips (leaders) opposing each other shall settle which party shall lead at the first head, after which the winning party shall do so. Six No bowls to measure more than 12 inches in circumference. Seven All bowls to be of wood, and 3& "mi, lax mi GOLF IS A GAME FOR ALL. Sides of four members each are usually chosen and a certain number of rounds bowled, the team making the largest number of points winning. Skill is not only required to place the bowls within the tee-circle, but also to place other bowls to protect them from dislocation, for one of the strong points of the game is to knock from the tee-circle bowls landed there by opponents. RULES OF PLAY. The following rules of play, adopted by the South of Scotland Carpet Bowling Association are being followed here : One (a) A clearly defined tee to be placed at the most convenient end of the carpet, (b) Around said tee, as a centre, a circle of 15 inches radius shall be drawn. To facilitate measurements, smaller inside circles may be laid down, (c) All bowls (balls) when being played to be delivered on the carpet between two lines 3 feet long, and tapering from 9 inches at the playing end to 6 inches at end nearest the tee, said lines to be defined by two strips of board 1 inch wide and 1-2 inch thick fastened down to the carpet, (d) entirely free of loading. No bowls to In? changed after a match has been begun. Eight (a) Should a bowl happen to be broken, another bowl shall be placed in the position of the largest fragment of the broken bowl ; the player being en titled to use another bowl or pair during the remainder of the game, (b) Any player breaking or destroying bowls by furious play shall replace them. Nine Each jplayer to be ready to play when his turn comes, and not to take more than a reasonable time to play.
