Bowlers Hope to
Bring Tourney Here

Washington bowlers are today of the
opinion that the next tournament of
the American Bowling Congress will be
held in this city. A large gathering
of local pin knights heard the report
of Granville Hunt on his recent trip to
Chicago for the purpose of bringing the
1918 tournament here, and 1t is the
unanimous opinion that the bowlers
can make this town the scene of the
classic provided the bowlers will CO.
operate in making this city the most
attractive place for the event.
Judge Howard and A. Langtry, of the
American Bowling Congress will visit
Washington Immediately after the
close of the tournament, which is now
in progress in Chicago, for the pur-
pose of considering the National Capt.
tai as the scene of next years matches.
James Field, Pop" Meyers, Cox,
Page, Hammer. Miller, and Brown was
elected to appoint variohs committees,
such as publicity, arrangements enter
tainment, railroad, advertising, etc, to

As result OF the good showing he
made in his match with Joe Turner at
the Gayety Theater last night, Jack
Mccarthy, the Irish middleweight
champion, has been showered with chal-
lenges from wrestlers who have been
performing before the Washington pub
lie for some time. Although Mccarthy
was downed twice by Turner the Son
of Erin put up one of the Cleverest
bouts seen here this season. Turner
proved too quick for Mccarthy on most
occasions. but considering the fact that
the visitor is shy three fingers on one
hand and has the use of but one eye.
he put up a good defense as we'll as

Mccarthy experienced less trouble
getting out Of Turner's fatal toe holds
than any of the latters opponents this
season.
The first fall came after slightly more
than thirty minutes, while the second
down was accomplished by Turner in
ten minutes.

X. G. Billings has purchased The Har-

of harness racing regard it as evidence
of the vitality of their favorte sport.
Only a few harness horses were ever
sold for more than $50, 600. The highest
price on record is $125OO0, paid by ].

June is not very satisfactory.
The first game is scheduled to be
played June Is at New Haven, and the
second game June 10 at Cambridge.
This is all right provided the weather is
fair, but a little rain will upset the
Erries sadly. Should it rain on June IS
the teams will cCme back together from
New Haven to Cambridge for the game
on June l9. Should ii rain that day the
bail players will troop back to New

Srsr game of the series is played. Then
