In sensational match Louis Franz and
Charles V. Gilbert, Of Cleveland, decisively
defeated Larry Sutton and Major Tyser, of
Rochester, whose work was matter OF
record a day or two ago. The Rochester
men we're fairly outbowled by the Ohioans,
who did their best work In the first game.
The form Of Gilbert was brilliant He hit
the pins cleanly and averaged 22S without
a miss Franz was touched in the last
game twice, but he recovered in fine style
and finished with 80.
Tyser was completely of form and was
unable to get going until the last game in
