BIG MATCHES
HELP BOWLING.
WRITTEN FOR THE SUNDAY REPUBLIC.

WRITTEN FOR THE SUNDAY REPUBLIC
Though proprietors Of bowling alleys are
generally averse to big special matches be-
tween crack cocked-hat teams. such con-
tests do much toward popularizing the
three-pin game, and enthuse the followers
Of the game. 1t was supposed that no
match such as that bowled between the
Grath and Owen picked teams would be
rolled this season. but there Is every pros
pect Of the Grath aggregation competing
with five to be formed by Lloyd Rickart-
It will be remembered that the latter chal-
lenged Grath and his team to q match
about the same time that the second con-
test between the Owen and Grath nyes was
arranged. The challenge went unnotced
In conseounece and now Grath IL In a
uuandary as to whether II n up to him
to accept the def. He says that he viii
decide the matter in q conference with
Rickart. and IL the latter Is still OF the
opinion that his team can defeat Grath,
Enderiee. Exec ct al. he VIII be ac-
commodated.
The recent matches between the great
teams has stirred up interest In cooked
hat among not only the followers and dew
otees Of the game. but among persons
who never rolled bail down any kind OF
an alley. II a scheme could be formed BY
which the spectators could be kept In con-
slant touch with the scores Of each OF the
competing teams, the game would be even
more Interesting than 1t is now. 1t Is al
most impossible for an individual to keep
the scores Of both teams at the same time.
and unless he has friend with him who
takes one five. while he takes the other.
he never knows just how the score stands
until each game Is finished Gus Bengel
calls out the scores in the wind-up
frames, but often this cannot be done ow-
ing to one teams rolling faster than the
opponents. and the difference in strikes and
spares that are up.
When public bowling contests are
inaugurated as the custom and q system

bowl. Just as every sport IS followed by
many persons who have never taken active
part In It
An Individual tenpin tournament for the
championship Of Missouri will be started at
the Courthouse alleys one week from to-
morrow. The conditions for the tourney
are that each contestant shall bowl i've
games. and the man with the highest total
will be awarded handsome gold medal.

Park Board Discusses Plans But Defers
rlg@N Action.
Notwithstanding the hot weather,
seven members attended the monthly
meeting of the Board of Park Com
missioners Tuesday afternoon. In the
absence of President William M. Candy,
Samuel II. BaynaId presided. The pro.
posed bridge over Clayton street at the
Park Drive and Lowering avenue was
discussed and plans examined, but
action was deferred, as the bids for the
arch are not to be in until tomorrow
week.
The report Of the executive com
mittee, which was accepted, showed
that arrangements had been made with
the Street and Sewer Department for
placing cement pavement, curb and
gutter on Washington street from the
bridge to Eighteenth street and on
Eighteenth from Washington street to
the Boulevard. The contract for curb
and gutter WAS awarded to tho A. S.
Reed & Bro. Co., at 53Is cents per
yard, and for the sidewalk to Simmons
d Bro, at sl.45 per square yards. 1t
was decided to ask for bids for cement
walks in Delamore Park on the Broome
street side. The committee held o con
ference at Clayton street bridge on
June 2lst and discussed the proposed
mprovements, and tho engineer was
instructed to ask for bids for the con.
orete arch, which proposes to raise the
floor three feet higher than at present.
The bids are to be in by tomorrow
week.
As to the Clayton street bridge
matter there is difference OF opinion.

think three feet will be high enough.
The matter will probably be decided
