Practically all league bowling has been
suspended for the next two weeks to en-
able the majority Of the bowlers to re-
cuperate from the effects of the coming
holidays, which generally takes a few
days. Others will employ the interval
between now and the renewal of hostili-
ties in trying 10 regain their lost "eye"
and training the optic to again correctly
gauge the distance between single pins
and the surrounding void.
New Jersey bowlers are evidently not
discouraged by the comparatively poor
showing made by the Paterson promoters
in staging the last National Bowling As
sociation tournament, as Newark now
looms up as a likely bidder for the big
Eastern event in bowling circles. II the
Newark bowlers land the tourney, they
will hold il on the old Tuxedo alleys
which will be replaned for this pur-
. pose Philadelphia also is mentioned as
A prospective bidder, with Rochester.
and it is expected that at the next meet
ing of the board of governors of the n.
b. A. one Of these three cities will be
awarded the annual classic.
After dropping the first game to the
Good Fellows, 469 TO 1872, the Belmonts

a poor start, got his curve ball working
good and recorded scores Of 123 and rs,
with HALEY rolling the high set of S45.
For the losers, Yong, with 1877 for high
single game. was the best pingetter.

While Brush does not seem to be get
ting the wood to any great extent in
the individual tournament, he continues
to deliver the goods on the Pilgrims
uuint in the Colonial League. In the
set with the Continentals, Benny topped
, the bowlers with scores of 2o3, 1SS, and
2oS. You're not ripe for the has-beens
yet. Benny.
Has Carey taken vocal lessons? Can
you sing. Hughey? II not, you remem-
her what that guy told you the other

the Colonials, from the bench on account
Of busted digit, but Frankie is not
a bowling success as a bench warmer.
