+ Yet. those the bowlers OF TUESDAY
will have something pretty good 20
shoot at. IL rs more tnan likely ina
there will be new leaders IN one OF
more OF the three competitions o.
fore Wednesday morning.
IL is truly a national represenl --
ton that Is carded for Tuesday. SiA
cities are listed in the fyemen com
petition while the singles and double
include many others This was the
first day in which the bowlers start
ed at the pin-splitting in the morninS
and the ante-luncheon period number
ed one of the best attractions OF the
tourney IN the SchWoegler brothers,
champions among the pairs These
two rolled a high total OF 1904 last
year.
Visitors Rolled Well.
-.ladison, Wis. and Cleveland had
the major portion OF the honors oil
Monday. although one Detroit pair up
held the honor of the City of the
Straits in good fashion. The colonials
OF Madison. Wis. rolled the only game
of more than a thousand pins mp %
this time in the tournament and K
put them i'm first place temporarily,
with 2s03 for three games. This Is
q higher total than that by which the
Furniture City team OF Grand Rapids
won big money several years ago.
but IL is hardly enough 10 land the
big money.
A high mark OF more than $500 Is
expected when the big Chicago and
New York teams get here. The first
onslaught OF the Chicago attack comes
Tuesday night when Jiggs Donahue
Phenix club starts splitting the tum-
blers.
Otto Wahl. of Cleveland had one
high game of 257 and this put him up
at the top OF the list in the singles
His mark of $50 will be good for one
OF the big prizes i'm all likelihood.
Vail is quite a boy and he had the
crowd with him as he capered after
each strike in the final game. His
team, j. Gruber, rolled consistently
ard got 62s pins in his three games,
George Mouat and Emery Johnson
were the mainstays for Detroit, get
ting a total OF 1.l6O in the two-meu
event. They had nice lead over
Gruber and VAIL, the next highest
pair OF the day. who totalled lib
I'm their doubles
st. Louis For 1911.
St Louis appears 10 have safe
lead in the contest for the tournament
next year. although Buffalo is repre-
scented here and making quiet test
of strength. There is a warmer con.
test on for the 1912 event. Washing
ton, ID. c., and Dayton, O.. being the
rivals. Each has a squad OF rooters
here and they are trying TO get the
promises of the other city delegations
a year in advance.
The politics OF the National Bowl
ing Congress have not come 10 the
fore much as yet. While Garry Herr
mann, OF Cincinnati. is strongly tout
cd for the presidency, there is a big
conservative element that wants to
see Robert Bryson OF indianapolis re.
tanned. Secretary A. l.. LangtTy. OF
Milwaukee, and Treasurer Frank
Pasdeloup. of Chicago. will be re.
elected without contest.
Andy Yoekum. George Dimmling
and b. \. Philippi. OF Pittsburg, are
also candidates for the first vice.
presidency to succeed Adam Hahn, OF
thai city. l.. Wehner. OF Dayton. O
Is campaigning for second vice-presi-
dent. The present incumbent is
Charles (Kid) Nichols. OF Kansas
City, an old time ball player Either

St. Louis. will have TO retire from the
executive board and IL is not yet ar
. ranged which one il shall be. A. l..
Daiker. of Cincinnati. may succeed
Emil Schmitt on the executive board.
The crowds are not turning out
very we'll at the Wayne Garden. but
II is expected that the high scores OF
Monday night Will start the bowlers
