Club Members Gather AT Their
Annual banquet And Name
Their Officers
PRES. W0LTERS REELECTED
Former Boss" Receives Gift From
Laborers AS Token of Good
Luck to Him

At the annual meeting of the
members of the Kegel Club held
at their headquarters last Thurs
day evening. the officers for the
ensuning yeai were reelected as Of
the present officers, to wit: H.
Wolters, PRESIDENT; H. Rohrig,
viCe-president; c. Maser, secre-
tary and treasurer.
The trcasurer's report showed
the Club to be on a sound financial
basis and an indication of a pros
porous year. Following a sugges-
ton of President Wolters. an ar
rangcment was made Whereby a
series of games will be pulled off
between four teams. The president
appointed as organizing commit
teemen, Charlie Rice, c. Maser,
w. H. Rice, Jr. and II. Ander-
mann, Jr. The duty of these COM
mitteemen will be to organize four
teams, each team to elect a cap
tain, and then arrange for a regu-
lar series of games, say to extend
over a period OF three or four
months. Prizes have been arrang-
ed for by the club and much inter
est has already manifested itself in
the new scheme.
One specially good feature in
connection with the proposition is
that the offering of prizes will per-
NIT all those who have fallen out of
the Isenberg contest, to have an
opportunity to make a winning in
this series. Another suggestion by
the president, is that two expert
teams also be organized, with
view of creating still further in
terest, these two teams, of course
to be composed of members of the
other teams.
In the past year, Mr.. Wolters
made a splendid record for him
self as the clubs president. He is
built on the lines of an enthu-
siastic sport and deserves much
credit for his excellent admins
tration of the club s affairs.
AS to the genial secretary and
treasurer, what can be said of him.
This much: That he is not only
treasurer and secretary, but he is
also the entertainment committee,
collector, bouncer and everything
else that S necessary for a success
full bowling game. Who's therel"
asks a member. Maser," is
always the reply. And so it is al
ways Maser is there. He is a

held by his brother members.
