at Barking Borough Bowling Club, Barking Park, last week for the
Arthur Wilson Trophy. This
is the fifth time the trophy has been competed for, in memory
of the popular bowler who passed away in December, 2004, and was
held on the eve of what would have been his 76th birthday.
Wilson's widow,
Kath, and sons Mark, Paul and Barry are all keen bowlers, and
took part in the match. Essex County Bowling President Keith Riley
also took part, indicating the esteem in which the former Fleet
Street press photographer was held.

Group Seven won the match by 115 shots to 110 shots.
