before the season Is over. Perhaps.
Hammers trimmed the Belmont of the
District Duckpin League in their last
match in two of three games rolling well
above the 500 mark in every contest

a set over Of s43 in scores Of lis, ITO. and
1I5.
In the individual Palace Alley tourna-
ment, Roderick lost two series being de-
feated In three OF four games by Nc
Knew, while Van Buskirk took the yete-
rams number in three straight.
OehIer, of the Puritans, in the Colonial
League started out well in his first two
games against the Iroquois with scores
OF 2o1 and a6, but somewhere a cog slip
ped and Harry spoiled a nice set with a
is score in the third game. Better luck
next time, Harry.
In the same set, in which the Puritans
won-two of the three, Mack. was stingy
with his share of pins in the third game
and contributed but 1lS. while Strauss,
of the Iroquois, toppied 20 over and the
difference between these two scores de-
cided the last tussle. Brown. in the
first game, also had a 70 score.

The much-abused Eurekas, OF the Dis
trict DuckpiR League, whose speciality is

games.
Herr Gerstenberg volunteered the in
formation that he had rolled 800 score
some umpty. steen years ago when he
was running alleys himself. And the
funny part OF IL was that Gersty claims
he only required nine strikes to anlass
this total. Each strike. according to his
statement was figured at thirty-six pins.
After several sleepless nights spent In
trying to dope II out, l had to give 1t
up, but Gersty will dig the proofs up
and show me. II he can produce the
