The seesaw between the Young Mems
Christian Association and the Saengerbund
for the lead of the Bowling League was
continued in the match Saturday night
between the Association and the South
Washington Business Men The leaders
are following suit with great regularity,
when one falls the other Immediately does
likewise. So 1t was that the Association
failed to take advantage Of the loss by the
Saengers of two games to the Eagles.
The Business Men proved too much for
the Christian athletes ard were victorious
in two of the games. The bowling was
OF good character, too, not quite large
as some of the matches last week. but still
considerably better than many of the
games played this season. The home team
averaged over 500, while The visitors made,
in their winning game, a score that was
up in the bunch Of big ones. Smith got
nearer to his form, than he has for some
weeks though he was still under the
hoodoo that has been his constant com
panion Of late. The other of the Associa-
tion five gave some great exhibitions of in
and-out bowling, running between very
high and very low strings Doyle set the
pace in this respect, having the lowest as
well as the highest score for his side Hop
kins was a little behind the others of his
team, the rest getting in some good games
The new men this team have surely
given it strength, but their bowling must
be consistent if the team is to win games.
1t is too much of a handicap when team
must always have one low total. This con-
stitutes drag on the others, so the steady
playing of good average scores will come
nearer winning games than the average
made up of high and low totals.
The opening game easily went to the
home team. and the Association was de-
feated by about hundred pins. The Bust
ness Men had the game clinched from the
start, the visitors making remarkably
low score in the first part of the game. The
score follows:

economical phenomena and certain symp-

Farland and Elkes aeI1e, o'clock Saturday
night. with Pierce and McEachern second
and Simar and Gougolez, tthe French team,
third. Only by a scant length did the win

more than lap was all that separated the
second and third teams. 1t was a stirring
finish to long, wesfisome journey, and
one that will probably be long remembered
by the throngs of spectators who were in
the garden at the time. Early in the week
the French team lost lap. and they never
succeeded in regaining 1t. although they fire.

Up to o'clock Saturday night the
Frenehmen thought they had chance OF
obtaining first place. but after that hour
their hopes seemed to wane quickly, and for
more than an hour afterward the three re-
naming teams on the track rode at slow
pace. Ihey were all playing waiting tactics
ana trying to keep what little strength they
had for final dash. At short intervals the
mates Of each team relieved each other.
About fifteen minutes before the closing Of
the race Ekes, Simar and McEachern left
the track. and the final squirt of the contest
was begun by Pierce, MacFarland and Gou-
goltz. AS they started on the last mile
Gougoltz shot ahead rapidly and secured a
lead OF several lengths. MacFarland was
second, and was riding we'll. A length be-
hind him was Pierce. who appeared as
though his strength was fast leaving him.
his condition seemed to be worse than that
