No East Vets Ladies remain in East Lothian Semi-final

On a day peppered with showers, East Vets were unfortunately not successful beyond the quarterfinals of the East Lothian County Championship. Both Eleanor Black (Dunbar)and Barbara Biggart (Gullane) were unsuccessful in the morning round when Mary Lou Renton, vice-captain of East Lothian, emerged as the successful semifinalist.

Jane Herd (Musselburgh) had a very good win of 10 and 8 against Alice Archbold (Longniddry)but, at only 3 over par, succumbed by 6 and 5 to Emma Fairnie (Dunbar) who was very steady indeed, being 3 under par at the end of the game.
