DEMMER'S CROWD
WAS BIG BUT The
CENTURIES WERE FEW
BY BERT DODGE.

~HARLEY DEMMER did himself
proud in the STAR headpin tour
nament last night. The popuiat
alley owner brought down twelve teams
to the Iroquois alleys, and there was d
orowd of about 100 rooters nesldes.
They certainly made "Demmer night
a big success.
Though there are many clever bowl
ers in the Deminer outfit. it happened
that not one Of them, Unfortunately
wasf able to land one of b watch
fobs offered by the STAR to all those
who roll scores of 100 or better. Inere
were not a few near 70 the mark, out
nobody could stick right through
twelve frames.
The greatest excitement cane when
the fourth squad went on the alleys,
There were three men who should have
annexed fobs. but they all fell down
in the Wind-up. GreenwRld was the
main guy, as far as hard luck was con-
cerned. for he tailed 80. He had no
misses and started on with two strikes
but did not do 30 we'll In his miooIe
game, as the chess-players say. In the
eleventh box he had 81 n needed nine
pins for q fob. He hit The pins pretty
we'll. but only eight fell. Groom started
with three strikes n had q mark OF
30 in the ninth frame. With a possible
no in sight he missed in the tenth box,
but came back with a strike in the
eleventh for ninety. Then, needing an
other. strike, he missed Instead and
stopped al 30. Kissler rolled 81. He had
a miss In the seventh box, but braced
up. putting in a strike in the eleventh
box for 81. In the wind-up he missed
again.
In the first squad there were few
good tallies, Horach, with three misses,
being high with SO. The second squad
also had little to do with the headpin.
Schnibbe and Fisher both had only two
hits. Hernoll, with three misses, tall
lied 50. The third squad did a little
better, but none WAS near the century
mark.
After the excitement incidental to the
fine pinning done by the fourth squad
had passed the fifth squad had a try.
Grossman, with a tally of so. made
after three misses had occurred, was
high. In the last squad Buhrer fur
nished a little excitement by rolling 50.
He did not miss until he sixth frame,
and then went along all right until tho
eleventh box, when. with a score of 81.
he missed. He had a strike for a wind
up and rolled 80. The scores are all
shown below:
