EMPIRES AHEAD.
The Empires defeated the Fries, of
Kent, in two out of three interesting
games, on the Main st. alleys, Friday
night. The scores were as follows.
Eries-611, TIA, 751. Empires-74S,

This is the third time these teams
have met, and they have bowled, in
all, nine games. Out of the nine, the
Empires have won five and the Eries
four.
ANOTHER ALLEY LEAGUE.
If plans that are now announced
Akron daily Democrat. [volume] (Akron, Ohio) 1892-1902, 1901-11-30

by the management Of the Grand al
leys, are not changed, there viii be
three alley leagues in operation in AK
ron, by the middle of January. The
Grand Alley league is already in full
swing, and has been for some time,
The Howard St league is almost ready
to begin operations, as the schedule for
the games has been prepared, and next
week will witness the start.
Manager Il. M. Frees, of the Grand
alleys, announced Saturday morning,
that he would probably have another
league in operation, some time in jan
uary. 1t will be called the Junior
Grand Alley league, and will be COM
posed Of teams numbering four or FIVE,
which were not organized in time to
get into the other alley league.
A team from the offices of the N.
o. II. Co. will be one of the members,
and the Acmes will be another. Two
other teams have already been organ
lied and will probably be in the new
league, although they have not yet Sc
lected names for themselves. The
bowling business becomes more inter
esting as the season advances.
HOW THEY STAND.
Next weeks schedule Of games on
the Grand alleys will be as follows:
Tuesday, Dagues and SUBMITS; Thurs
day, Akrons and MarOons; Friday, Ul-
tras and Grands. Standing of the
clubs In the Grand AL ey league at the
end of this week are as follows:

Match.
Harris Offers to Bet
Much Money.
Big Purse Is Offered In
San Francisco.
Another Bowling League to be
Started on Grand Alleys.

Now there Is wall raised by some
of the former admirers Of Art Simms,
who deserted his standard at the time
he was defeated by Martin Duffy. They
believe that Simms would have had
as good a chance to defeat Terrible
Terry, as Young Corbett had at the
time he did the trick. The truth is
that Simms tried very hard to get Il
match with McGovern, but was turned
down several times. Harris, McGoy-
erns manager, was unwilling to take
chance. but now that McGovern has
had his first defeat, it is probable that
the policy of the fighter and his man
ager will be to take on all the good
matches that come their way, and
make all the money that is in sight,
against a rainy day.
HOT AFTER ANOTHER MATCH.
McGovern and his manager are hot

match. Sam Harris, the manager,
posted forfeit of $500 in New York
Friday, for another match and says
that he is willing to concede almost
anything to Corbett in the way of time
and arrangement, just so the fighters
meet again.
He also says that he Is in favor Of
the offer made by Jim Kennedy, of the
Twentieth Century Athletic club, Of
San Francisco, who has announced
that his club will give $4,000 for the
20. McGovern's friends still believe
that he can defeat "Corbett," and n
great deal OF interest is taken in the
prospect of another meeting. Harris

JENKINS TURNS PUGILIST.
Tom Jenkins, the champion wrestler,
has turned pugilist, and has challenged
Jim Jeffries for n fight for the cham
pionship i'm that particular line. Jen-
kins has been boxing steadily for four
years, and in that time has had the
gloves on with some of the best men
in the business, and his manager states
that he Is confident that the Cleve-
land man can defeat Jeffries
Tuohey, his manager, will go to Sau
Francisco to see what can be done in
the way Of making match. If Jeff
fies won't fight, Jenkins will try to
get a wrestling match with him, and
will agree to throw jeff. in an hour, at
catch-as-catch-can wrestling Jenkins
will not abandon the wrestling game,
by any means, and will continue to
make matches with any one who may
desire to meet him on the mat.

KIRKWOOD NOTES..
The f team defeated the B team
last evening by rs pins in the first
and 80 pins in the second game. With
u distinct lead of four games and
only six more to bowl, the A team
feels quite confident of winning the
