FIELD NIGHT EOR BOWLING.

Contests at theISaenxerb.nd Hall and
Carroil Rstitute.
Bowling enthuf sasts could take their
choice OF witnessing either of two contests
last night At the Saengerbund the Ger
man team was hired against the Drawn of
/ the Young Mems Christian Association,
while at Carroll ftstittte the Golden Eagles
competed with the champions of last year
for winning. The games were naturally
of great Interest. Fall of the four clubs be-
ing so we'll matched ssad the championship
really being within the reach of any of
them. Out Of the matches the Eagles
come with the most tperceivable satisfac-
ton. for by defeating the CAROLS in two
of the three games the visiting team slid
into second place in the league, getting so
close to the Saengers that the latter club
Eagle birl. The CAROLS become third in
standing, with the Y. NJ c. A., who were
beating the Saengers on their own stamp
ing ground twice out Of the three games,
the CAROLS is a source of the keenest dis
appointment to their friends and support
ers. The team has lost eight of the last
WE'VE games played. and with the cham
plonship apparently within reach they have
lately coursed steadily downward. Last
night Bernie Locraft returned to the game
and averaged fairly well. in spite Of his
long absence from the league ranks
At the Carroll Institute the crowd of
rooters had much to delight them, when
the home team got through with the visit
ors in the opening game The CAROLS had
rolled the biggest score Of the season, and
at time when it seemed that Columbia's
run of GIG, made during the first part Of the
season, must stand. But every man on the
Carroll team had his eye on the head pin,
and the score is particularly creditable
from the fact that the high total is not the
result of an individually high run There
was but one 300 game. but all of the other
players supported Harlow in his 10 and
the grand run of 800 resulted. There were
put SIX breaks in the entire game and
Duke" Merritt had none of these since
ne played clean game throughout. The
Duke" Merritt had none of these, since
they maintained lead throughout
The last game was a splendid exhibition
of ten pins, and very exciting finish re-
suited. Double and triple headers abound
ed, but at the opening of the last frame
1t seemed that Carroll must surely win,
since they had fair margin. Not man
broke on either side in the last frame but
Fritz Hanold touched them UP a few for
his side, and then passed it down to Laue
and Armstrong. Laue continued on his
good work and closed with a fine string
but the CAROLS We're still ahead when
Armstrong started to bowl Every man on
the opposing team had finished. and in
Armstrong; bowling the decision lay. Army
was more than equal to the task In his
ninth frame he had placed a strike, and
on his first ball in the tenth the pins top
pied like grass before the cutters scythe
But this was still not enough to win. His
JOB was surely hard one. But again he
bowled and again he showed his skill, for
another strike resulted, and the game was
won. On his third ball he bowled seven
pins. making twenty-seven in this crucial
frame The scores follow:
