Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1912-03-10

the best Pop HALEY could show in his
next two was an even century and one
over. Thought he would wind up with
a big one. after that start.
You will have to hand 1t to the Casinos.
The team average which they are putting
up for the season is SO stupendous (D
that the official scorer could not COM
pile it.
The Nationals had no trouble taking all
three from the Immanuels. Roberts was
the chief villain, splitting the wood for
a 30 set. Harry Oehler was the only one
under a century average.
Something wrong, radically wrong.
Lefty Goodman only got $40 pins against
the Mount Vernons. II Goodman had
now Is in at the beginning of the season.
his average would have looked like it was
made at tenpins.
The chances are that the Y. NJ. G. A.
was mighty glad that Poston failed to
show up for that first game. The asso-
citation won the second by five pins, but
dropped the last
Capt. Armiger intends to use the ak
during the coming season. From what
we hear he intends dropping Krauss, Car
roll, Lewis, Harley and Lennon.
Colonial.
The Manhattans. only won six more
during the past week. In view of the
fact that the race Is close they need
every game they can get.
Wonder if some one has. told Chris
Jacobsen that his team would drop 100
pins in game he would have believed it?
After getting 967 it was out for high
set but the next two-good night.
Too bad Lon krauss shot that 600 set
against the Pilgrims Lon claims that
he gets 600 once annually. We wish he
had saved II for the ManhattanS at Chi
cago.
Harry Sherwood is developing a bad
habit by throwing in big game in all
of his sets. Week before last he turn
ed in count of 254, while last week he
showed with 233.
That 226 of Frank Thomas looked like
diamond in coal pile alongside of the
scores OF his teammates. BY the way.
no one on the KnickerbOckers was there
with double century.
With 1870 and 30 in his first two at
tempts, Estep was in for a good set, but
a measley little 14S in the last shot his
chances all to pieces. Such is the game.
With little additional Strengthening
here and there the race should develop into
a hot one next season. The Manhattans
have won the championship on merit. but
with some of the weaker teams bOlstered
up their path would not have been all
roses.
Southern Railway.
Car Record was the only team in the
league to win all three games. Freight
made a game attempt, but fell short a
few pins in all Of the games.
Getting away with 80 and 81, Blais-
delps chances for a big set were mighty
slim, but that 40 in the last more than
turned the trick Some finish. believe us.
Terry fianked a 100 against the Con-
trollers, with 81 in the first and 93 in The
last An average of 1O5 with those two
outside games is not SO bad.
From the way he finished Goldberg
would just have rolled about If he had
shot eighty-two more games. In the first
he pulled up with SO and then went
down one each in the next two.
Triplett. the only real live bowler in
captivity who can curve 'em two ways
ent. if nothing else. His totals showed
counts of 81, "a and 90.
After Truan pulled los in the first game,
Freight might as well have quit as far
as one hundred games go. Smith made
q big try to go over in the last but fell
one pin short.
Both Sparks and Humphrey got away
with 11S in their first games only to
fade to a whisper in the next two Sparks
finished with 297 and Humphrey 2A.
District (Ten).
For the second time this season the
Chamber of Commerce threw the hooks
into the Saengerbund for all three games
The Chamber sure has got that pennant
fnchcd now.
Only one game over the double CEN
fury. Machler. unaided and unabetted
contributed the aforesaid score in his
last attempt Ecksteins two of 100 were
the best for the Germans.
Guy Eiker had his knuckle in. as can
be seen from the sos set he shot with
Sam Simmons against the Nationals. Fin
fishing with 211 and 222 after that 165
start is going some.
No wonder Bob McLennan only coralled
1873 pins in his first game in the G. p. o.
Carroll set. Bob was trying out new
ball given to him by the Brunswick
Balke-Collender Company.
Jake Diemer had few records in view
after that 1911 in his first game against
the Eiker-Simmons combination, but those
next two were awful.
Charlie Miller put a crimp In an aver
age that is none too good for bowler Of
his caliber to possess by shooting two
games OF 141 and 165. Maybe it all de-
ponds on where the games were rolled.
Arcade.
The Hoimeads came through with an
other one Of those big sets against the
Argyles. Getting away with 500 in the
first. they followed 1t up with 500 and sos
Our Sterling Little Bowler" Stanford
caused all the smoke with that 346 set.
Harry hit EN- up for 40. 122 and ia.
Pretty rotten for a good bowler. Yes?
More space for Goodman. Why not,
when he shoots 100. 10s and 107? Hon.
estly, we believe that fellow could pull
up, with a count Of about 81 and then
feature 1t.
