BOWLING AT ST. LOUIS.
Opening of the Seventh Annual
Tournament

ST. LOUIS, March 16.-The seventh an
nual tournament of the American Bowling
Congress began tonight, and will continue
daily and nightly until March 81. The
Crescent building, in which the tournament
is held, has been under reconstruction for
several months. Twelve glistening, new al
leys occupying the center Of the arena were
dedicated this evening by five-men teams
comprising st. Louis and Kansas City con-
testants.
The hall. seating 1000 persons, was full.
Each contesting delegation was assigned a
section, designated by big banner bear
ing the name of the city represented.
the tournament was formally opened by
President Robert Bryson Of Indianapolis
and eleven other leading officers Of the
American Bowling Congress, who simulta-
neously hurled a ball down each alley while
a band played.
Then one team Of five men from Kansas
City and eleven flve-men teams represent
ing st. Louis took positions at the alleys
and the tourney was on.

POINT OF THE CUE.
4 Matter That Concerns All Billiard
Players.


The ways and actions of professional bill
Hard players are at times curious and &C.
centric. Some are more methodical than
others, while a number are full Of foibles
and extremely fanciful; but there is one
point upon which they all set great store,
and that is the point of the cue. Generally
professional has two cues-one that he
plays with and a spare one to be used only
in cases Of emergency. He always hopes
to work the season through without having
to bring into use his second stick, and
by careful watching may do so, but he
rarely succeeds In that. On the subject of
his cue tips a billiard professional is al
most fatalist. Unless perfectly satisfied
that the small piece of leather is quite sat-
isfactory he loses confidence In himself and
goes to the table with a feeling of evil to
come No art connoisseur watches his
treasure with more or is more anxious
as to it's safety than the PRO" with re-
gard to his cue tip. He is forever touching
it up with penknife cutting away the
minute portions that by constant use break
away from the edge, glass. papering it and
filing it in order that it shall take the chalk
and bite on the ball, until at length it
has worn down almost to its end, when an
other tip has to be selected.
Players nave been known to rummage
over boxes containing hundreds without
finding one that has been considered salts
factory, while a new tip put on in the
afternoon is often discarded at the interval
as too soft to ever become good. A tip has
to be broken into it's work. Constant play
should harden and flatten it down, but the
process must be gradual. The harder it Is
the better will it strike the ball, thus en-
abling you to get more side or hit your OBJ
ject with greater accuracy. A new tip Is
generally described as spongy, or giving too
much when it strikes, but sometimes a
player is lucky enough to pick one that is
good from the moment that he uses it.
Then he is in his element and feels like
SCORING" except that the perpetual fear
that it will go wrong or wear out quickly
always hangs over him; but, as a rule, the
life of a professionals cue tip Is from
three to four weeks, although a players
methods have considerable bearing upon
that. The professional player will tell you
that the perfect tip, like the perfect pipe,
has yet to be invented.

AT WORK IN THE BOATS
GEORGETOWN OARSMEN GETTING
PRACTICE WITH THE SWEEPS.

The Georgetown varsity and prep oars
men made their first appearance on the
water last Monday and every day since
have been able to get a daily spin. The
threatening reports Of freshet and flood
from the upper Potomac are discouraging,
but it is hoped that with the strong pre-
vailing northerly winds the surplus will
pass out quickly.
The floating boat house has been lowed
I'D to it's old moorings near the college
buildings. and Coach Murray Russell hopes
that from now on there will be no set
backs to the daily practice He is anxious
ly awaiting the pleasure of the usually
uncertain fast freight, as with the new
launch in working order three times as
much can be accomplished
The Potomac Boat Club at it's meeting
Wednesday decided to make formal re-
quest to the National Association of Anna
teur Oarsmen to give 1t the date Of August
"a for the annual Potomac river regatta.
The meeting OF the national committee
Washington representative was on hand
to propose the Potomacs' plan.
The house committee has been given carte
blanche to go ahead and fix up the club
residence for the season. The ball room,
ladies' reception room and the boat racks
will all receive the needed attention.
The scullers Of the river, Daily, German,
Davis, Herman and Britt of the Potomacs,
and Nevius of the Analostans, are begin
ming to get their shells in order.
The Potomacs have secured three new
outriggers for the use of recreation oars
men, and it need not be said that they
will be appreciated.
The Analostans are buslly engaged in
working out the details of that new eight
cared shell which they expect to be about
the finest thing the Potomac river has ever
seen in the way of racing craft.
Nothing official has been given out re-
garding the contemplated entrance Of the
Analostans into the fold Of the Potomac
River Regatta Association.
The Washington contingent is watching
with interest the outcome of the trials Of
the national association, the Fortemeyer-
West scandal and the reported worries Of
Worcester officials It all goes to show
that it is no easy job to manage a national
regatta.

Yale's Basket Ball Championship.

Yale's winning Of the intercollegiate bas-
ket ball championship Is quite certain to re-
suit in some amendments to the eligibility
code Of the league before another year has
passed. Yale won the title not SO much
through superior ability as through q
double code Of eligibility. Against one-half
of the league Yale was forbidden to use
freshmen, but against the other half she
used them with impunity. Harvard and
Princeton, unable to use freshmen them
selves, successfully opposed Yale's use Of
them In their games, but Yale did use them,
at least one man. against Pennsylvania,
Cornell and Columbia And by this use
Yale won the championship. Had the Ellis
colleges, with the exception of Columbia,
Yale would not have won the championship.
The league viii be extremely foolish X Ii
does not insist upon uniform code for the
coming season.
