They say down at the German League,
as the Saengerbund bowlers now call
themselves, that Redeker is not likely
to make any further cracks about his
prowess as a tenpin toppler on account
of the trimming Fred Carl gave him the
other day.
While Carl does not claim to be star
at the game, he is liable to roll high
score or two at any time. and when
Redeker boasted about being able to beat
him out on every set throughout the
season, Fred promptly took him up for
a keg of suds. Needless to say, Fred
Carl slipped it over on John p and the
aforesaid keg of suds was opened last
Friday. It is further reported that the
only gloomy face seen on the alleys was
Redeker's, who will think twice in future
before making similar breaks.
Say, Friend Horace, III I don't see

That ''adeur'' arising from the Royal
alleys one day last week was not due
to defective plumbing, but came from
the really rotten games the Nationals
got out of their system. Said games
consisted of 745. 742, and 756. Consistent.
all right, but.
Getting the big scores when they count
the most is evidently what Acton and
WoodtieId believe in. With their 1i5 and
l33. respectively, these Hilltop bowlers
pulled the game out of tine fire, defeating
Atlantics $50 to 55l. DIDN'T have much
to spare, either.
More company for Harry Oehler. Shake
hands with the Callams, who went on

The Manhattans, in the Colonial
League, keep merrily on winning, and
this time took the Iroquois tribe into
camp for two out of the three. In this

clusiEely that this had not effected his

and 203, averaging 2N for the set. This
is the seasons record for the District.
