BY BERT DODGE.

q ONE Of the bowling teams which
~ nave entered the STAR head-pin
tournament have made @ sugges-
ton, which will undoubtedly be carried
out. 1t has to have nights set aside Oh
which teams entered from various
clubs or associations shall be given &
chance to roll together. The Bay View
Wheelmen want to have a bay View
Night" some clubs fron-the North Enc
section, such as the Lakesides, the Cliff
tons, the Crescent Colts, the Kllnger
knights, the Chadwick Five, the Bay
leys and the Clifton Second Team, want
to have a branch Brook Night" and
so 1t goes.
HI arrangement last season proved
to be a success. The National Turner's
had a chance to see their teams roll to-
gether, and other organizations were
similarly treated. 1t might be possible
to have the bowling teams representing
various secret societies brought together
n also the teams entered from vari-
u manufacturing concerns engaged In
the same Industrial lines. The STARS
bowling committee, In charge of the
tournament, will endeavor TO have the
plan carried out as much as possible.
Teams continue to SEND In their en-
tries and the tournament seems GER
ain to be as large, If not larger, than
the n conducted by the STAR last
season. Some of thesteams which got
in line yesterday were the Roseville
Colts, the Chadwick Five, the Klinger
knights, the Elizabeth A.. A. team, the
Anchor A. c., the PASSAGES. of Harri-
son; four teams from the Magnolia
Club, the Louis Jensen Association. the
Postoffice Bowling Club, the Lowell and
Mcconnell Bowling Club, the Onawa
Bowling Club, the Stag Bowling Club,
three teams from the Peoples Palace,
Of Jersey City; the Alma Five, the
Meadowlarks, the Daisy Bowling Club
and two teams from the South Park
Club.
The STAR head-pin tournament will
be started u week from tonight and
teams wishing to roll early should get
in line soon. An effort will be made by
the schedule committee to place teams
according to their desires. AS. how
ever, the bowling is to be confined to
Wednesday and Friday nights, this
task will be no easy one.
The list of teams for the opening
night will be prepared loon and then a
schedule for a month or SO will be pre-
pared. It is expected that the COMPETE
tom will continue until early in April,
If the list of teams is an unusually
large one. 1t may be decided to roll
oftener than twice a week. or. possibly.
ten teams may occasionally be called
pm to roll, instead Of eight. the number
chosen by the present plan.
For the benefit of any bowlers who
may not have Informed themselves of
the rules for the STAR tournament, 1t
may be we'll to say that the regulation
head-pin game is to be rolled n five
man teams have been asked to enter.

December 8. The prize list Is as fol-
