SHAKE-UP OF REAL

Result of the Playing of the

Two Weeks.

Just how closely the teams are punched
in the championship race in the Real Estate
Bowling League could not have been bet
ter demonstrated than by the general
shake-up in the standing In the past two
weeks. While several teams have shifted
for better or worse, the biggest sensation
was caused by the Potomac boys. who
have jumped the Columbia and Assessors
teams and now lead the league by small
margin of one game. The Potomac boys
have put up wonderful bowling In the past
two weeks, winning four games out of SIX,
taking two from Columbia and two from
City Hall. The Columbus, Assessors and
Lawyers are also putting up strong games.
tying for the second position. with good
percentage of .6l1, and So points behind
the leading team. The Lawyers, who are
tied with the Columbia and Assessors for
second honors, deserve the highest credit
for their bowling during the past two
weeks, having played six games, winning
five out of the six with splendid per-
ceutage of .S34 All the teams have played
eighteen games up to date The Columbia
team continues to lead in team average,
with an average of $3.50. having made 40
strikes and 418 spares and topping 14.9S5
pins.
In the individual averages Whitney OF
the LAWYERS leads with an average of 40

INSISTS ON ST. LOUIS
WASHINGTON DEAL
From the st. Louis Star Chronicle.

From the ST. Louis Star Chronicle.
By the way. there's great chance for
the right man to grab on to a world of
talent in the A. l.. A number of star men
are slated for sale or exchange.
The right wise gazabo. by digging down
into his jeans. can strengthen his team suf-
fciently to make 1t a lalapaloosa.
Besides Flick. Mcintyre of Detroit. Col
Inns and Ferris of Boston, Williams and
Conroy of New York. and Stahl OF WASH
ington, are among the topliners who are
obtainable, according to all reports -
Flick or Mcintyre. workin galongside of
Stone and Hemphill. would give McAleer
the best set of outfielders In the country
One more No. l infielder to keep Wal
lace and Jones and either O'Brien or Niles
company. would make his infield all to the
good.
AS matters stand there is nothing to indi-
cate that the Browns are going to acquire
real first-class man. The writer knows
the whereof of what he Is talking about
when he says that 1t has practically been
arranged between McAleer and Joe Cantil-
Ion, the new commander of the Nationals,
to put OBrien and Jacobson in Washing
ton and send either some money or a
player this way.
Just what we will get if the deal isn't
called off. remains to be seen. But the
fans hope McAleer grabs to Lave
Cross. The angularly constructed infieder
would be worth his weight in gold to the
1907 Browns
They are nicely nifty as they stand But
with Cross on the third bag they would be
all the candy.
Hedges has never spent much money on
his team. But here's his time to invest.
He has tidy appearing nine, and it doesn't
need much strengthening to make 1t as
good as any In the A. l..
But one, IL not two new men must be
landed Hedges presence abroad at this
stage of the game hurts. McAleer has
never yet done anything single-handed. and
the writer doubts Jimmy's gameness to
