Coming down the stretch
in the Nvssa Horseshoe
Tournament Neil Mathews
still holds a commanding
leading lead but is being
relentlessly pursued by Bob
Wilson.
Wilson scored six straight
games to keep pace with Neil
who also polished off three
opponents.
Prime mover during the
week was Roger Norland who
won 5 of 6 games placed,
including two
wins over
Father Simard to ease into
third place. His split with
Red McCradv provided the
opening for Norland to reach
the higher rung.
Two splits and two losses
dropped Red back to fourth
place while Father Simard
lost six games while winning
only two to remain behind
