order to correct any wrong impressions which might have been formed from press reports over the week end it might be pointed out that the Shanghai Lawn Bowls Association, during the last week in August, selected the six players who would proceed to Hongkong for the interport series, the names of these players appearing in the "North-China Daily News." Of the original six J. E. Harvey and W. Napier have, for business reasons, had to withdraw their names, their places having been filled by J. W.
Brierley and J. M. C. Lopes.
