.BOWLERS WANT
RULE CUT OUT.
Cost Of New Alleys on Whichstc
Hold National Tournaments
Is Too Much.

Philadelphia, August 27.--The in
crcasing cost OF holding national |
bowling tournaments is being discuss
cd these days by bowlers and 1t is
agreed that the principal item to be |
considered is the new alleys which are I
required. AZ a meeting of the board |
OF governors Of the National Bowling !
Association, held early this year in |
Philadelphia, the proposition was dis
cussed OF holding the yearly events
on replaned alleys. 1t did not meet !
with much. favor. Again at Bait
more the eastern bowlers discussed the |
matter. and there was considerable
change of sentiment Philadelphia ten
pin followers were particularly strong
in favor OF replaned alleys for tour
nament, and there is no doubt that II
the National Bowling Association
could see It's way clear to do away
with the rule insisting on new alleys
there would be a great fight to land
the 1912 event Newark, Washington.
Philadelphia and Brooklyn might be in
the field
AS the 1909 event was held In Bal
timore and the 1910 tourney was sched-
uled for Buffalo next February, the
1911 contests will in the natural course
Of events again come east.
Last year and before Buffalo had
put in It's proposal. Philadelphia Of

provided permission would be granted

~ Named alleys. Owing to tho fact
that all previous tournaments Of both
thu MAMMAL Bowling Association and
" >nferican Bowling Congress have
be>a held on brand-new alleys, this
prof. wilton seemed n bit drastic, par
ticularly to the veterans, and they
did not take kindly TO tho offer.
New alleys have always been used
under the impression that this would
tend more to equalize chances and
1 would eliminate any possible adyan-
tage the local men might have On al
leys 10 which they were accustomed
It has been found that replaned al
leys offer as many obstacles to the
man accustomed TO bowl on them be-
fore their renovation as brand-new
alleys possibly could; so there ap-
pears TO be nothing left In the new
alley IDEA except matter OF sent!-
ment. and perhaps pride
II the National Bowling Association
agrees TO bowl on replaned alleys and

turkeys used in the absence of present.aav sacru.
ties for transport to be driven long distances on
the roads, a couple OF noble sportsmen laid a wa
ger as to the speed of turkeys and geese over a
course which 1t would take a matter Of DAVIS IN
traverse. Each nobleman was provided with a
little hock Of four OF the fowls Of his fancy. and
of course betting was high In favor of the tur-
keys. And at first they seemed to justify their
hackers. for they soon stalked away from their
waddling rivals and left them far behind. So
things went on all day. but as dusk came on the
aristocratic turkey herd found his charges becom-
ing passive resisters. and displaying an incurable
desire to so to roost-no amount OF coaxing would
propel them farther. Meanwhile the despised
geese, with whom night and day were not of any
very great Importance. waddled sedately past. and
ultimately won the race with plenty to spare. 1t
was pretty nearly the old tale of the hare and
tortoise over again. In fact.
| have known the farmyard bully pretty well
hested on two occasions myself-tragically so.
In tact One of the most valued possession OF the
Calcutta animal dealer | have mentioned was a
fawncoiored European bred turkey, whose color
much commended 1t In his eyes. since turkeys OF
this hue seem not to be found In India. This
privileged fowl used to circulate about his mas
ters chair. %strutting and ~gobbiing. and though he
often resented the entrance OF natives into the
compound he respected Europeans, a piece of dis
crlmination one does not expect In a being of such
limited Intelligence as a turkey. Another inmate
of the menagerie was a young cassowary. and he
the compound one day, | missed the ginger-hued
gobbler, and asked what had become of him.
"Ah. my poor turkey" said the dealer; he
gave cheek tc the cassowary, and the cassowary
kicked him and burst his bag." 1t sounded as II
the impudent bird had been collapsed like a toy
balloon, but l did not inquire into details.
The dealer. however. consoled himself with a
pair of local turkeys or the ordinary dark color.
and the gobbler was beginning to take the place
OF his deceased predecessor in the economy of the
