IN Wednesday’s Lyn Wilds pairs at Wanderers Bowling Club it was fitting that the husband of the late Lyn Wild, Keith, took the main prize with his partner William Richardson with the score of 4 + 17.
Lofty Cawthorne and Len Roscoe finished in second place with 4 + 14.
Lofty also won R20 in the 60/40 board draw with the R40 going the way of Gerrie Jackson. Father and son Raj and Russell Rangiah took the first session with 2 + 14 and Gloria Rice and Linda Hewer won the second session on a count-out from Bob Hayward and Eric Smit. Dennis Gericke won the meat raffle and there were no takers for the lotto which will be another carry over.

In the men’s senior singles Derek Stevens beat Eric Kitchenbrand 21-7, Chris Klopper clopped Errol Pienaar 21-3, Russell Shepherd despatched Ken Thomas 21-13, Kim Hawkins beat Ronnie Jackson 21-10, Dennis Gericke got a walkover from Andy Andraschko who withdrew owing to the fact that he will be departing these shores within the week, Lofty Cawthorne beat Eric Smit 21-16, Bob Hayward beat Clive Symons 21-12, then in the second round Bob beat Dave Faifer 21-17.
In the men’s nominated pairs Dennis Gericke and Mike Freeman beat Anthony Carr and Tommy Simpkins 21-12. Two women’s drawn trips matches were played.

Last Friday’s various meat pack winners were: Mutton pack Mitch Mitchley, chicken fillet bake and burger patties Eddy Bailey, chicken pack Jackie Freeman, rump steak Eric and Anne Smit, pork ribs Mark Jackson, chicken Leon Hauptfleisch.
The R500 snowball was not won as Brian English was not present.
