The Jersey City news. (Jersey City [N.J.]) 1889-1906, 1897-12-17
SPORT ON TIE ALLEYS.
Last Nights Work Was Lively with
eEae Rail-.

The Lafayettes rolled well at their own
alleys in both games of the Jersey City
League, and defeated the Oceans by good
figures. The interest was not lacking,
and the team work was SUFFICIENT to keen
the game in doubt until the closing
frames. In the first game the Oceans
were not as aggressive as in the last,
and the hon bowlers, gaining the lead
early, held it to the end and not so in
the ina game. Ocean started with fast
work and CAV the Lafayettes a scare by
holding the team until the eighth frame,
when the home team, piled up a lot of
credits and won by a margin of 70 pins.
