STRIKES AND SPARES.

against the Arlingtons. What was the
name, please?
Gordon put in a 254 game to show how
good he really felt. You just can't make
! Jack behave.
The Navy Yard dropped two games to
the Treasury team. Well. the navy went
down with flying colors. anyway.
! The Shrimps got away with the Crabs
for all three games. Was 1t because the
Crabs were tired and had a Knapp?
Jones of the Cubs averaged l05 in the
set against the Johnnies. He isn't cub;
he's a full-grown teddy bear.
Sherwood oowled 132, 1877 and 213. Glad
to see that the big boy has recovered
| from his bad attack of last week.
l.. hrauss had games of .17. 200 and
| 191 in the Pioneer-V Virginia set. a real
neat bowler, just like Harry.
There was a bowler named Blindman in
the Pressmen lineup. Huh! Those three
scores of 125 look mighty suspicious.
Bogley of the West Washington team,
] had score of S4 in one of his games
against Mount Pleasant. Strenuous work,
! that.
| The Fowls took the entire set from the
! Tigers. That was one time that the
winged members of the league found soft
cratchng.
| The Orientals took all three games from
| the Saengerbund in their last set. Char
ley Miller was the busy boy with an av-
erage of 213.
The Serenaders captured all their
games from the Sparroughs. Nothing like
plucking birds In clean manner, even
| IL they are sparroughs.
Moses & Sons kept up their winning
| gait by taking two games from Kann' s
team. They have an aggravating lead
| just so near and yet so far.
| Morris had games of 2O3. 100 and 225
in the Capito-Treasury set. The ma
jor' always was noted for being either
awfuly good or very, very bad.
The Fat Men got another start by TAX
ing all their games in the Carroll set. Go
| it. Fats" the Orientals will catch you
| IL you don't watch out.
| Ward started off with a game of o59
| and followed it up with 1875 and 1870, aver
| aging 2l4. Look OUT jim. or they will
| pe calling you the peerless leader.
Baum of the Star duckDin team had
! games of 12,. I'D and 100 in that match
| with the Baltimore scribes. Oh you,
| Baum. Are there any more at home like
you"
| Ludwig of the Capitols was the cause
! of slight delay in starting the Interior
Capitol set last Wednesday. What was it,
Baron" the lady the hat this time =?
! No, Scherer of the Erecting Shop team
| did not blow UP after getting that 244
! game. He came right back for 10 in his
| third game. So much for having good
| nerves.
| After winning the first game from the
Bemonts the Capitol Hills lost the sec
ond and third by four pins each. Come
! on back. fellows, the Royals want to look
! you over.
! Treasury bowled a 1,O47 game against

game total for the Departmental League.
beating that Of the Bureau by six pins.
Good work. boys.
! The Royals took two games from the

fxr-N Il, that, act cof hoy
| will be tall doings when these two teams
| get together.
Mess OF the Post Office had nice
| string of games last week-1S1. 197 and
24. Looks as IF the little fellow had been
doing some practicing since his last set.
No.
The Mount Pleasant Sunday School
/ team is "A real sassy" aggregation, bowl
| ing games of 923. 41 and S97 against the
| West Washintons. That lineup looked
| like an all-star east.
, Bum of the Potomacs had games of
| clS. 179, 214 against the Saengers Later
| in the evening he and Wee Willie" Mil
| Ter were engaged In a battle with the
| cues. Celebrating. "AP?
The Saengerbunds rather rubbed II in
when they got after the PotOmacs with
| those games of 1,OO5, 1.O17 and 9S3 last
week That must have been sweet re-
venge for what the Potomacs did to them
| the week before.
| Parker bowled ol3 and ao6 Smith got
o04 and 21O and then some one called for
| a strait acket. The former got 1S1
| and the latter 100 in their third games.
| Looked as il Parker was the more scared
| Of the two. Why?
Redeker OF the saengers could average
| only 15S against Oriental. The boy would
| give better results If he We're worked
| more often. EXtra-"Reddie" got there
| In the Potomac-Saengerbund set. Who
| said work wouldn't agree with him?
Rice got 224 in each of his first and sec
| ond games. but bowled only $50 in his
third. Something seems to say that
| Tony" had lie gotten three games of
oo4 would have been carried home in a
| taxcab. 1t isn't every bowler that can
| stand a sudden shock.
There is no guessing those second di-
| vision teams. The Warriors took two
| games from the G. p. O.. Agriculture took
] two from the Navy Yard, Capitol put il
on the Treasury for two games. Post
Office trimmed the Interiors for two and
| along comes the Treasury and takes two
more from the Navy Yard Isn't that
enough to put your dope book out Of COM
