Affairs in the District Amateur Bowling
League are rapidly rounding into shape,
and within a few days the rumble of the
balls In the championship series will be
heard on all the alleys. None Of the clubs
has yet completed the selection of the
teams to represent them in the league
games, but by Monday of next week their
composition will be pretty well settled. and
then for the few remaining days before the
opening contests there will be hard, steady
team practice.
While the membership of the league is
identically the same as last season. it is
not at all possible to make any reliable
forecast as to the result of the winters
play. There will be new faces on all of
the ives-in some cases practically an en-
tire new team-so there will be a number
of dark horses: The .'oid reliable" Saen-
gerbundS will be nearly the same as last
year, and will likely prove one of the best
teams IN the league, but that they will for
the third successive time carry off the
championship Is matter that is not ad-
mitted by the other clubs. The rest of the
clubs appear to be quite evenly matched,
SO a very pretty contest is looked for:
The schedule has been prepared with the
utmost care, and, as adopted, is considered
by all of the league members a model for
fairness and complete arrangement. 1t is
presented herewith.
