City Bowling League Tournament will
End in Two Weeks.
ClARKSoNs MEET UNEXPECTED WATERLOO
krus Parks Take Couple of Games
from the Topnotchers - Exciting
struggle for Third and Fourth
Places weeks Gossip.

II was the unexpected that happened In
local bowling circles last week. The
mighty Clarksons were made to bite the
dust OF defeat by one Of the admittedly
weak teams OF the city league-the Krug
Parks. At Clark's alleys Monday night the
Krug Parks won two OF the three games
played and the members Of the victorious
team took as keen enjoyment out of their
achievement as If they had jumped up to
second or third place in the percentage
column.
In the closing days of the league race the
one ambition of the teams that are sched-
uled to meet the Clarksons is to defeat
the topnotchers. The Clarksons cannot
possibly lose the trophy because not enough
games remain yet to be played to permit
their losing first place. but il their per-
centage can be lowered, a deal Of graft
fication will be taken by the other clubs
In the league. The Krug Parks put the
first crimp into the leaders Monday night
and local bowlers have not yet recovered
from the surprise the news occasioned.
The members Of the Clarkson team were
all decidedly off-color. Brunke Conrad and
Denham bowled about as badly as they
possibly could and seemed absolutely un-
able to collect themselves and get into
their usual form. Their scores made the
score sheet resemble the record of so many
amateurs. The krug Parks, on the other
hand, bowled in splendid form. None of
them made particularly high scores, but
their bowling was consistent. .
In the begipning it was plain to the spec
tators that the Clarksong were out of form,
although they won the first game Lam
caster made a total score In this game
Of 203 and Clarkson chalked up POS points.
These were the only scores in the series
that went 200 or better. In the first game
C"eedon of the Krug Parks scored 1917. The
Clarksons' total score in the first game
was 500 and the Krug Parks S39. In the
second and third games the Clarksons went
all to pieces and their opponents. profit
ing by the evident weakening OF the Clark
sons, bowled their very best. The Krug
Parks, by "a coincidence, made the same
score in the second and third games-S09.
The Clarksons scored 500 in the second
and 796 in the third. In the series the
clarksons scored 2,491' and the Krug Parks
2,457.
The teams participating in this match
consisted of the regular membership. The
Krug Parks were Conery. Nielsen Hansen
Creedon and F. Krug. The Clarksons were
Denman, Brunke, Lancaster, Conrad and
Clarkson.

Poor Joe Choynski, always unlucky. is
up against fierce proposition in Texas.
Joe went down to Galveston a short time
ago to show colored fellow, who was
touted by the Galveston sports as a win
ner, that he wasn't such much, and it
didn't take him long to shut off the sun
shine for that darkey. Three rounds did
the business and Joe had corraled a little
velvet and was feeling on Easy street in
these days OF dire distress for the ordinary
run OF pugilists. His felictation was
short-lived, however, for the sheriff
stepped In and Joe Is now In durance vile
with charge preferred against him which
is penitentiary offense. The governor OF
the state is backing the prosecution and It
looks pretty dark for poor joe Choynski's
misfortune will have the effect OF steering
the pugilists away from Texas for all

always been hoodoo TO prize fighters. A
