have plenty of opportunity of INDUCING
in their favorite sport.
The basketball team very fittingly clos
ed its season last week by defeating the
Wilmington DelD Y. NJ. c. A. team in
the gymnasium of the latter. This is the
second defeat the champions have suffer
ed at the hands of the Association, ana
the players may well be proud of their
work. The season in this line OF sport
has been a very successful one for the
Association.
The bowlers go right along winning
games in their own quiet way ard now
feel quite secure in the first place. They
well deserve the honors for they have
bowled steadily and consistently and bril-
liantly many times.

ing.
The indoor season at the Infantry armo-
ry has not been as active as in former
Vars in so far as gymnasium work is
concerned, because of the frequent inter-
ruptions through renting the armory,
drills. and so on. 1t is proposed next sea
son to make gymnasium work a decided
feature, and it is hoped to interest large
number of the soldier boys in class work.
In last Fridays National Guard meet
the Infantry entrants made good show
ing, although they won but two events.
They promise to do better next time, when
there has been more time for practice.
BUSINESS MEMS CLUB BowLERs.
The Business Mems Bowling Club team
suffered quite setback last week at the
hands of the Golden Eagles who took two
out of the three games played and threw
the Business team uncomfortably close to
the Columbias. who. with the Eagles, are
holding down the two last places in the
League ladder.
The team lacked steadiness and the in
and out playing lost ii at least one game
of the set. In the last game. Hopkins.
who is usually good for full set of stim
scores fell down badly and closed with a
loo score. His first total was 1856. Nc
with 49, rising to ISL in his second game.
and falling to 1913 for his last trip down
the alleys.
Brown, at anchor, held up fairly well,
having an average of 162 for the set: 100
was his high score Bishop. whose aver
age was 15S in the last quarters bowling
is holding his own very well and in the
last games bowled an average of 163 2-3,
100 being his high game.
'ierst is generally very steady, con-
sistent bowler and often helps out in
tight places. Like his team mates he fell
below his average last week.
The next nearest competitor to the
In fourth place, is too far away to be
reached. SO one will have to content it,
self with being the tail end of the lead
ing four and the other can do no better
than being the leader of the tail-enders.
