6O2 TEAMS In
N. B. A. TOURNEY

Special TO THE EVENING JOURNAL
NEW YORK. April 2-six hundred and
ninety-tvo hve-men teams VIII roll in the
National Bowling tournament in Madison
Square Garden. New York, May "a 20 June
u. according to present calculations OF
Secretary Wyman and President Cordes.
Of the tournament. Judging from present
figures and information, the total number
Of five-mcn teams will surprise even the
most sanguine Following is a list Of states
showing what Is considered 20 be fair
estimate OF the number Of fvc-men teams
that VIII enter from each:
New York State (cNclusive Of Greater
New York; 100: New Jersey, 100; pennsyl-
vanla. 30; Delaware, 10; Maryland, 25;
Ohio 20. Illinois. T.; Connecticut 20. Mis-
souri,. g. Canada, 10 Indiana. 3; Kentucky,
8; Wisconsin. o; Michigan. o; Vermont o;
Minnesota. 3: Massachusetts, 3; Rhode Is
land, 8: District Of Columbia Q; Iowa. q;
Southern states, TO- Greater New York
is expected to enter nearly three hundred
teams.
Whatever extravaganza might be shown
in the estimate will undoubtedly be made
up by the entry Of teams from cities and
towns that have not been considered by
the officials. on the total Of 692 fve-
men teams. Il is quite reasonable 70 expect
1900 two-men teams and fully $500 individu-
al entrants. making grand total Of near
Is ID. 900 men competing and more than b.
900 games 10 be rolled IL Is feared that
It might be necessary 70 close the entries
considerably earlier than was at first cal
culated. The date az present is May 3.
The New York Bowling Association, at
its last meeting. decided to notify all the
clubs IN Greater New York that It will be
advisable 70 enter the National Tourna-
mont as early as possible, thereby avoid
ing the possibility OF being shut out.
A very important step was accomplished
this week in the obtaining OF SPECIAL rail-
road rates for the n. B. A. Convention and
tournament. Bowlers will be able TO visit
New York at a cost Of fare and three
nfths for a round trip. This is effective on
an railroads.
John G. Floss. Of Buna'o. announces tnat
the bowlers OF his city will visit New York
on a special train and has requested that
May 2S be set aside for Buffalo Day. The
annual convention Of the National Bowling
Association viii be held on saturday, May
% in Madison Square Garden Concert Hall,
while BaltimorefDay will be Monday. Nay
s.. As Buffalo and Baltimore are rivals for
the 1910 convention and tournament it Is
expected that the convention time will be
lively.
June and ( has been assigned to the
bowlers Of Tifhn. Ohio. in order THAT they
may make the long trip overland by auto
mobile. The bowiers will be accompanied
by their wives. Their entry was received
this week There will be a five-man team,
three two-men teams and six individual
entries.
The ball OF the New York Bowling As
sociation at Terrace Garden on Wednesday
was a great success and quite sum was
added to the fund for the entertainment
of visiting bowlers during the National
Tournament.

York and Reading. and Altoona aud
Johnstown, the western clubs. twill
each struggle for honors in that part
of the state. During this time each
team win be trying hard TO land the
championship OF the league.
Nearly all the teams will begin the
playing of exhibition games next week.
Harrisburg will clash with a number
of fast teams prior to the opening of
the Tri-State race. April 2s, including
the Philadelphia Athletics and other
big league attractions. York will meet
Wilkes Barre, Syracuse, Albany.
Bloomsbury. Columbia. Red Lion,
North York and perhaps a few other
teams and in that way keep in condi-
ton.
The financial part Of the game is in
a sound condition now and there is
little doubt but that the teams will
continue throughout the season with
proper support from the fans. The
salary limit is low but there is but ore
other league in Class b allowed to pay
more money so that players can find
little fault. Those in position to know
baseball from the financial standpoint
say that it was time that some steps
were taken to put the game on pay
ing basis, so that managers and owners
would lose less. Heretofore players
have been the only persons considered
and they have become rich upon the
losses os club hackers.

TRI-STATE TEAMS
BEGIN PRACTICE
Followers Of the Game Now
Sizing Up the
Players I

Baseball enthusiasts in nearly all or
the cities on the Tri- State circuit are
being given the opportunity of sizing
up the material selected by the man
ayers from which TO form their terms.
The players of every club are report
ing for practice this week and with
the exception of Altoona and Johns
town all will work out on their home
grounds. The men who will strive for
positions on Manager Reisling's York
team will report for light practice to-
morrow morning and will be gotten
into shape for the opening game of the
exhibition series on Monday with the
Wilkes Barre team of the New York
State League.
Owing to the fact that Altoona and
Johnstown will be given their spring
training away from home the fans Of
the other Tri-State towns will have q
better opportunity Of learning the mer-
its of the players before the real open
ing of the league season. Altoona
will practice in Virginia and the
'Johnnies" at Chester, both beginning
work next Monday morning.
President Charles F. Carpenter. of
the Tri-State. states that there is every
indication of a successful season and
that the teams of the league will be
very evenly balanced. This latter
fact will make the race closer and
moro intense and should develop a
rivalry between the teams aside frorn
that for the possession Of the champ
ionship. There is no doubt but that
the eight clubs in the race will all be
out for pennant honors and for su-
