almost all fell down in their last
game.
6runswicks Did Well.
The Brunswicks OF New York. did
fairly well in their individuals by do
ing some strong work in their first
two games, and would have done
more had they not failed TO keep up
their work. and seemed TO lose cour-
age in the third game. =. J. Ridell

first game, 403. in their second, and
3y9 in their third Had they not both
missed couple OF spares they should
have been in first place. They tied
Hall and Lane OF Washington. Pa. for
sixth place.

is supposed 10 be a has-been. He was
not given chance to roll with the
big five Wednesday night. on that &C.
count. Thursday morning, he rolled
5S7, the second high score OF their
squad. which goes 10 show that he is
not so deserving OF the title Of has
