dence and possibly Fftchburg. on next
Thursday evening at the New Century

last series that was contested was won
by the Worcester team, but a diligept

used to be the recipients of much IA
vorable comment when they appeared in
their natty uniforms In their scheduled
events. Jones made a single OF lSs pins
on the candle pins at Boston on a GER
tain occasion Ia the series.
II IL expected that candle pins will
be rolled at Boston. Worcester and
Springfield. while duck pins will prevail
in Providence and Fall River. The pro-
dency 10 create q greater interest in can
die pins rolling among the principal ex-
perts who are available candidates for the
local delegation. Shesfe OF Boston and
Mccain Of Worcester, two notable ex-

will doubtless secure results which will
prove very satisfactory.
