One of the happiest Cinks in this burg
was G. G. Hammer when his team beat
the Saengers two out of three George
wore a smile which stretched from ear
10 ear during the first two games, but It
faded somewhat in the last tussIe
Warner, of the Carrolls in each of his
last two sets against the Government
Printing Office, spilled exactly $50 pins
There's really no reason for being so
particular Pile up some more the next
time.
The Belmonts, of the District Duckpin
League, who recently hung up r. new
team record, are still keeping I'D the
good teamwork with scores of 57I and
562. Their other game. however. was
considerably below their standard-s2-
but at that they only lost this by just
one pin to the Royals
The Manhattans, in the Colonial
League. who had hitherto not tasted
the bitter pill of defeat lost three games
out of six rolled this week. In their last
game against the Knickerbockers they
were eleven pins shy, despite McKnews
high score of 2S7.
That eminent artist at the SaenEer-
hund, r. f, de Ker, had some very
nicely written invitations inscribed on the
blackboards in the clubhouse to come
and see the fur fly Monday night" when
the home team tackled the Chamber OF
Commerce Quint Well the fur flew all
right. but of the wrong cat, from the
home teams point Of view. Stand still.

twice in the same sPot."
No, gentle reader, the Westminster

the names of the teams do remind you
OF the studio
Why do the teams OF the Carroll Coun-
Gil League always use between six and
eight players for every set? And the pc
Culiar part of 1t is that the substitutes
do not appear to be better bowlers than
the man taken out Looks more like as
IL each team is composed of men who
are always the job and is just dividing
games up between all who put in an
appearance. In most other leagues il be-
comes painfully often necessary to scout
around for a scrub substitute to fill
out.
Down at the Harmony League they
are seriously contemplating forming a
team of "in-5ad" members. II such
,eam should be organized they would
win in a walk with the wealth OF ma
terial on hand.
Who said bowlers cannot aviate?
There are some who can 20 so high they
grow a full beard before landing on

Another good set for consistency. Nc
Aboy, of the Hilltops, in the Northeastern
League-lO9. lO9 and Ill.
Why didn't Guy EIker round out the
full dozen when he was going after
splits in the National-Central set?
Eleven is an odd number. but that's no
reason why any one should Guy him.
Glad to see our friend Percy discharged
from the hospital. even Trough his props
are still weak. But then, Percy finds a
whole lot OF satisfaction In the fact
that the other fellow will still have to
stay there for another month. and that
is balm to his injured feelings.
The duckpin honors for the past week

last mentioned also establishes a new |
league record.
The Saengers failed to stop the Cham
berites last Monday and dropped two |
games to the leaders in the District Ten
PIN League. As a last resort, Auguste, |!
who had been rolling in hard luck all |
evening" was taken out and Redeker, the
nome bowler, substituted to shoot the |
third game. Reddy rolled his usual bril-
liant game-l65-and, needless to say, the
saengers copped the anal. incidentally
