completed. and there remained the play
off to decide the point. The GLOBE, in
the spirit of fairness that must char
acteriZe every event that this paper Will
be identified with, hesitated to call the
two champion teams together without
mutual agreement between the
candidates as to the date. The
GLOBE was particularly anxious that
all parties should be satisfied with
every detail. Unfortunately this could
not be realized. and il now seems nee
essary to explain in very concise and
unmiStakable way the differences that
have arisen and that defeated this end.
The GLOBE, as the donor of the trophy,
had the undiSputable right to designate
the alleys on which the game should
be played, and moreover. to fix the date
of the event. Two weeks ago the GLOBE
gave full notice concerning the first
part. 1t was announced that all future
games in the tournament should be
played on FOley's alleys. Then came
the duty Of fixing the date, and three
days, exclusive of Sunday, was awaited
by tile GLOBE with a view to a mutual
arrangement between the two clubs.
The NushkaS were ready for play at
any time, and repeatedly so de-
clared themselves. They were Will
ing to comply With every requirement
specified by the donors of the trophy,
but the KegelS demurred, and then pro-
posed to dictate the conditions of the
fina. play. They were unwilling TO ac-
cept the rules offered by the GLOBE.
but demanded that the game he played
OIL different alleys, and insisted that the
Nushkas should be prohibited from
practieing on the alleys at all prior to
4 4. fn-
miliar with bowling, and any one ac-
quainted with ordinary rules governing
sporting events, will submit that this
would be an innovation without prec-
edent. To deprive an athlete of the
right of training or practicing where
his proves is TO be tested is more than
the donors of the trophy felt like doing,
and was ridiculous and unfair, and
when the NuShka team agreed to carry
out every part of the arrangements that
had been announced by the GLOBE,
this paper had no right to say to
the Nushkas I'VE will not do as we
promised. We will take this game to
Minneapolis, and you are forbidden to
go there ana practice" In all honor
there was but one course to pursue.
The GLOBE straightWay announced that
the tie game should be played Oft ac-

Foley's alley last evening. The hour
for the play arrived. The Nushka team
was there ready for the contest, but the
Kegels had fiunked. Not a man aD-
peared. Consequently the GLOBE
authorized 'Dud" Finch to serve as
umpire and the Nushkas rolled a
frame. No opponent bowled, and Mr..
Finch declared the game 800 to
nothing in favor of the NuShkaS. Con-
seauentIy, the elegant badge will be
presented tomorrow evening to the gal
liant Nushka boys. and Hon. W. w. Err
win Will represent the DAILY GLOBE on
this occasion and make the speech.
Unfortunately, Thomas Foley cannot
be present, but Jules Mayer will be III
charge of the house, and a pleasurable
evening is assured. The GLOBE asks
all the nine teams that participated in
this struggle to be present, and an hour
or two on the alley in general bowling
carnival will be fitting hnale to the
most successful bowling tournament
ever given in the Northwest.
