and Richmond tenpin artists undoubtedly
could be enlisted. 1t is just three-hour
ride from the Virginia city here. and the
expenses incident to participai IN in the
tournament would be very modest. And

the n. B. A. affair. without the attend

Washington and Richmond all number
, many crack bOwlers among their inhabi-

undoubtedly measure up to the best.
