cester thinks he has a mark IN the
person of Manager Burns of the afore-
said alleys. he will find out MS mis-
take after he has bowled the f1rst oo
strings in the 100 string match of can
dlepins for the 800 prize.
While Mr.. Burns may be well along
in years he is no spring chicken, ana
win make the Worcester man Keep ms
eve on the pins. There is every promise
of a large audience for the Fitchburg
boys will not be found wanting, and 1t
is very probable that any loose change
that the Worcester rooters may nave
to spare will be accommodated.

games. and it is hoped that old STICKS
will be used for the final struggle.

reached. He will have a long rest un-
