Bontz put up 200 set against Smith
and Collins last week. Looks like the
Big Chiefs foot was well once more.

Barber had a total of 1.O16 pins in

in the second. and then was taken sick.
Pool AL, never knew q high score to
affect him that way.

He did that stunt last week in the

The Toboldt and Campbell team IL the

the hands Of general disability. Just as
BILE enough for any team to be in. Why

Was there ever anything in the line OF

Although all the games in the two-man

and Brosnan. who have a possible chance
to beat them out by winning all of their
ten remaining games. which would make
them winners by the narrow margin OF
one game. A tie for first place could be
brought about by their winning nine
games. but In that event Waters and
Krauss would win out by virtue Of total
of pins. BY winning eight out OF their
remaining ten games Barber and Bontz

ODonnell, who would have to be content
with fourth place. Withers and Brown
