Of the Worcester and Newport Cycle

Newport rooms on Chandler street. and
was witnessed by nearly 200 of the mem

the tournament. The first two men to
play for the Newports made 80 points be-
fore their respective opponents and gave
their club what appeared a comfortable
lead of IS pins. Their three successors.
however, could not keep up the clip and
let their opponents go out first each time.

while Wade was pocketing 80. The game

LOCAL RECORD.
Total Of 239 Pins Scored at
the 9-Ball Game.

A new local record for the uine-ball can
die pin game was established yesterday
afternoon on Whites alleys. The three
M's-Mason. Mccain and Munsey-were
the bowlers, and their total score was 299
pins, or four pins better than the preced-
ing record, which was also rolled yester-
day.
The nine-ball game has been played oc-
casionally on the local alleys for some
time but only about a month ago did the
bowlers take it up TO any extent. The
first total exceeding the 200 mark was
made by White, Lewis and Morgan. this
trio knocking over 2O6 pins. A couple of
weeks later White Morgan and Water
man set new mark by making 214 pins.
This stood until yesterday afternoon,
@hen II was twice improved upon. The
first time the bowlers were Mason, Hunt
and Mccain, and after they had rolled
the total showed not only the downfall of
235 pins, but the former record as well.
Then Jack Munsey suggested that three
of kind generally being good paper, the
three NJ might improve upon the new
mark, and with Mason to break and with
McCann's assistance in the picking up
process, Munsey set out upon q seemingly
hopeless task. The trio however, sue
ceeded in breaking the record with four
pins to spare the total being 239. This
was done in the third game.
As the game is played the first man-in
this case Mason - breaks and rolls his
three balls. The second man attempts to
pick up what is left, and is also entitled
to three balls, the pins being set up again
as soon as all ten have been knocked
down. The third man, in turn. with his
| three balls, also picks up, and in case he
has no ball left and no pins standing, has
a chance to break. When the third man
has rolled his three balls the pins are set
up afresh, and man No. begins as be-
| fore.
| Mason, Mccain and Munsey started out
well, but two or three poor frames I'm the
middle of the game, with only a 10 total in
pins to accomplish their purpose Mason
| opened the frame, getting a spare, which
netted him six additional pins. OF the
with the three balls, Munsey however,
| picked off the two remaining pins with
/ two balls, and with his third ball made
eight more, giving a total of 2S for the
| frame and 239 for the game. The score
