its first half of the battle for the 1911
tournament in the annual meeting of the
American bowling congress Yesterday. An
amendment to the constitution providing
that the annual tournament may he start
ed any time between January - and
March IL was passed as a substitute for
the proposition that the meet begin on a
Saturday in February. The ST Louis

they would withdraw their bid for the
1911 tournament, as they wished to open
the event in January. in order to allow
the base ball players to compete before
the opening of their training trips.

ords claimed must be made on alleys
which have been planned within a year
or the new mark will not be recognized
