rRl.clIY AVERAGES.
BoWLING NOTES.

Academy leads the league by 7 points.
Not so bad, when IL is considered they
have taken a slump.
An-ilmington rolled a corker in the
last game.
Two years ago 500 scores were con-
siderod good in Wilmington. No 600 scores
are frequently rolled.
Warren won the last game in Chester
by one pin. That kind of a game is hard
on the nerves.
seigel and Flynn went over the 600 mark
last night.
The New Castle boys are not winning
manv games, but they must be admired
for their staying qualities.
''Shep" had a nice score. He had his
troller working some in the last two
games.
CLARK" of the Academy team is on the
sick list.
Pete" Mayne laid off last night. He has
a sore thumb.
Chalfant got back in the game and
rolled 500.
Flynn has won the $50 prize at the
Olympia alley every day this week. He
is bowling in great form.
Seigel and Flynn would be a hard team
to defeat by any two.
Jones and Booker rolled nice games for
tho Black Cats last night
Harvey of the Olympia tried a youngster
and he did fairly wen.
Tom Brown is not bowling his usual
game. As he has lately been married he
has an excuse. Also Webster.
There is talk of a match between Willie
Gehman and Seigel. Why not bring the
"old man" down and let "Flinny" double
with Seigel. II woulu be interesting.
George Huxley rolled 2S5 in the second
game at Chester.
Bob Mullen had a bad night. lie pulled
his average down some.
Johnson tried hard for 500. He should
have made it.
on the % the Academy and All-Wii-
mington meet for the first time this year.
This should be a warm one.
Harkins rolled his first game in the
league last night. He did we'll
McCurdy and Freebooter is one and the
same person. BY some mistake his name
got twisted in New Castle. Why not let
Kelly won the last game of the
Warren New Century last night at
Chester. He had TO get a strike to
win and moved them down amid much
Applause, winning the game by one
pin.
Evening journal., 1904-12-16

ing the base ball rounds last night IS
that one Of the big colored teams may
be one of the new clubs and Johnstown
the other. Either the Philadelphia or
Cuban Giants would prove a splendid
attraction in every city IN the circuit.
While none of the magnates has made
a statement one way or the other. il is
believed that the proposition viii be
favorably considered. Both the colored
teams mentioned have made applica-
tion for membership.
II is also understood that President
Creamer win not stand for reelection
because Of the pressure Of private bus
iness affairs, which he sacrificed to a
considerable extent last summer when
he took up the reins of Office with the
League in a somewhat unsettled condi-
tlon.
