$50. between Archie Duke Of the Clinton
Bowling Club, with Louis Bald Of the
Ven Bergens, for a partner, and Samuel
Coffman and Joe Perlnutter, both mem-
bers of the Doolittle Club. II was one
Of the most exciting Of the many matches
that have been rolled at Woods Hall and
needed every game scheduled but one to
decide It. The alleys were crowded with
spectators, whose interest remained rivet-
ed to the match from beginning TO end.
1t was wonderfully long drawn out, and
although it began at nine o'clock, when
the last ball had bounded down the alleys
the hour hand marked one O'clock. Il
was a record breaker in this respect, as
well as being the greatest two men team
match that was ever decided in this city.
The men are all well known and have
ability as bowlers that has put them in
the front rank. Sam Cofman is the
champion of the city, having won the
honor by defeating Duke after a hard
race last winter. They have been rivals
ever since and the games last night
cropped out Of this. Duke selected Bald
and then threw the gauntlet down to
Coffman and Perlmutter for a series at
| Woods Hall, which has been the Doc
Titles stamping ground ever since they
started in TO bowl, and the pair con-
sidered a match at home just like finding
money and many people wondered at their
opponents feeling satisfied to meet Cof-
man and Perimutter on their own alleys
without having insisted on a home and
home series, In which it was argued they
would stand a better show for success.
The result, however, shows that the visi-
tors were right in their conclusion. and
they won after a very hard struggle. one
thai resulted in close contests and high
averages. Considerable money was wager
ed and the Doolittles were heavy losers.
but expect a chance to recover the coin
before the season ends Each contestant
gave a pretty exhibition and the spare
bowling was one Of the best witnessed
on the alleys in this city. There was no
let up in the pin poundi-sg and the con-
testants made the best of every advan-
tage offered. They redoubled their ef-
forts at every mistake Of their opponents
and no chance was lost that tended to
improve the figures. Few spares were
missed, but the result was pretty even.
A number of split spares were made
by Perlmutter, Duke and Coffman, which
evoked the cheers of the enthusiasts. The
match was won by the greatest bowling
ever put up by two men in this county
at a single time in any contest, and the
stride maintained by the Clinton team,
when the result was most critical. gave
the ardor of the Dcolittles a chill and
their followers threw up the sponge be-
fore the game was half finished. They
had Just captured the ninth game, making
it four to FIVE, and their friends began
TO root, expecting their representatives
to win out again, which would nave tied
the score. Duke and Bald proved their
steadiness, however, when it meant sue

surpassed all figures for the night. with
the phenomenal total of 462. Bald rolled
