Summary

Babcock and Wilcox synopsis: There is keen sports rivalry between the Renfrew and Dumbarton works of the Company, and this item deals with a closely contested bowls match and the exciting finals of a darts competition; with honours even between Renfrew and Dumbarton. If bowls and darts are everyday amusements, Judo is not, and the item concludes with a glimpse of Jimmy Hagerty’s Judo class at Renfrew, where enthusiasts enjoy training in the art of throwing somebody else’s weight about.
