CLOSE TO RECORDS

on the bowling alleys last week there
were a number OF high scores made and
records received very generous rap

record making Of the present time Is one
who is 10 be one Of the big league bowl
ers for the next season. For the first
part Of this season ne did not show TO his
best advantage but OF late he has gotten
into his stride and is making all the
older ones shiver in their shoes.
This bowler Is T William Pryor. the
captain OF one Of the teams playing IN
the railway tournament His team now
leads I'm the contest. and bids fair TO hold
this first position. since the other cap
tains cannot cheer their men on with
such good grace nor such records as
he has been making during the pas; Two
weeks
Tommy" is bowling in such good form
that he can make high score at al
most any .ima end at any place. Last
Saturday he stopped i'm at the Infantry
hall alleys during the noon hour and with
v CsrelesSness that was not the most
blaze possible made score that will
stand as remarkable for some time TO
come. Without any apparent trouble at
all he made singles OF 10, 9s and l10,
ma king total for the three strings Of
39D Recently At tho Central alleys he
made 32S with the same ease.
When a man can make a string Of eS
without strikes or spares he is certainly
showing remarkable control over the pins.
Yet this Is what was done tho other day
by Mr. Pryor and this stamps him as
one Of the coming bowlers. There is no
question hut that next seoson he will
be found among the big league men and
