BOWLING
RECORDS OF
 THE PLAYERS
How the Locals Frame Up With the Other State League Play
 ers--Games Last Night.

Joe Musante of Bridgeport came to the fore during the week and leads the league with an average of PIT, but as he has only just started he cannot be given the real honor of being the premier individual artist. Jimmie Watt is the real leader, al though he fell off badly during the past two weeks.
 Hartford stepped into second place again by defeating Waterbury, so that the Brass City team is only a few points ahead of Bridgeport.
 Meriden is farther way than ever, while New Britain is hopelessly out classed, and after their performance of this past week it looks as though they were to be no more as far as this league is concerned.
 There Is but one honor that the Bridgeport team holds and has most of the time for weeks past, and that Is total pinfall, and although they only lead New Haven by four pins this week.

AFTER JEFF DOHERTY.

Although Jeff DOherty failed to sprinkle his opponent all over the can vas up at Boston the other night, he succeeded in putting up a good enough show to convince those present that he is capable of working some with anything at his weight. Kirtland was at least 20 pounds heavier than Jeff when the boys met as preliminary to the Gardner-Wolcott bout and taken on the whole the boys defeat on points was more or less eXcusable.
 Tom McDonough, manager of Dave Deshler, saw Jeff work ill Boston and writes that his man is anxious to meet the Pride of New Haven at any req sonable terms. He preferred bout before some New Haven club. but as things look rather gummed there for the present, the bout will be open to bids from any of the clubs of Boston and vicinity.
