the WabashaS, who Wrested the
right from the Columbias on Thurs

lore, play the winners of the Tuesday
battle. Should the SUBMITS win both
these games, the cup will then rest
with them, but should that team tall be-

challenge right will pass to either the

will, of course, have to play off before
a challenge can be made.

Transcendent interest will attend the
forthcoming series OF match games be-
tween the GLOBE ten and the Foley ten
boWlers for a purse Of 500. The condi-
tionS of these games were published III
Yesterdays GLOBE. But for fear that
some may not have noticed them they
are reproduced. Tom Foley issued a
challenge to the GLOBE team to play a
team that he would pick. The GLOBE
had list OF thirteen players, and Foley
is conceded twenty to select from. Tue
winning is to be decided by the best
three games out of five. Two are to be
played at Foley's alley, two at Amor's,
and at the election of Foley the odd
game, if necessary, is to be played at
the University Avenue club alleys. The
GLOBE team will meet at Foley's at 10
o'clock this forenoon to conclude ar
rangements, and to play practice
game.

The GLOBE team, it may be of inter-
est to relate, was suggested by bowl
er. who is, by the way, very valuable
member of the aggregation. as good
organization to represent the DAILY
GLOBE IN the worlds fair sports, and
in a spirit of fairness, and as matter
of current gossip, the names were re-
produced in these columns. No one
dreamed at that time that it would Gre
ate anything like feeling of jealousy,
but some OF the bowlers of the city were
miSjudged i'll this respect. Therefore,
it might be we'll to explain that more
than one thing was taken into con-
slderation when the gentleman alluded
to made the selection. Let it be
borne in mind, in the first place, that it
is not every bowler in this city that can
afford to make the undertaking, no
matter what his proWess on the alleys
may be. 1t would entail time and ex
pense to attend the worldS fair games.
A little practice in Chicago would be
absolutely necessary, and the selection
was made with this important condition
in mind. Again let it be understood
that the team is open to changes, with
the purpose of strengthening the ag
gregation, as players can be found who
will enter the contests. Really. there
has been no occasion for any player to
feel sighted, and had the boys reasoned
great many harsh things that have been
uttered of late would have been left
unsaid.
There is another little amenity that
should be given at least passing
notice. 1t has been repeatedly an
nounced that a captains tournament
would supplement the GLOBE series.
All the captains of the nine clubs that
participated in the GLOBE tourney were
eligible. This was made plain, and it
was understood that all would play.
But il so happened that Capt. Henry
Walter, of the Columbia club, found
that business matters prevented his en-
gaging III the series. The Columbia
boys were particularly anxious to be
represented in this unique trial of
strength and skill. and straightway
elected Ludwig Plelss as their captain
to engage in the captains tournament.
This incident, it seems, has aroused a
peculiar storm of disapproval in two of
the clubs, and some pretty caustic things
have been given vent to, and they have
been carried direct TO Mr.. FleiSS. The
latter at once notified the GLOBE, IN
utter amazement, that he would not do
ANYTHING to provoke any unpleasant
ness. He said he had thoroughly en-
loved the tournament now about ended,
and he desired to participate further in
the events. But inaSmuch as he had
become obnoxious to other participants
in the series. he would peremptorily
withdraw. He is out of it now entirely,
and there can be no further ground for
complaint. The Columbias will not be
represented.
