There was another close match at Wootton Bassett where the home team's A side beat Shrivenham by four shots 79-75.

Barry Heywood almost swung the match in Shrivenham's favour, beating Jim Jones' rink 33-11, but Eric Matthews' 26-21 win over Ken Downton, Maurice Brown's 29-9 win over John Simpson and Vic Hilton's 19-12 success over Roy Dixon made sure Bassett took 12 of the 14 points on offer.
