CAPITAL BOWLERS
REGRET. FAILURE
TO GET TOURNEY
Award of 1913 Event to To-
ledo, o., Causes Dissatis-
faction Here.

Washington tenpin and duckpin en-
thusiasts and business men generally
are today expressing much regret that
the 1913 tournament of the American
Bowling Congress was awarded to To-
ledo, Ohio, and not to the National
Capital. At the time of the 1912 tour
ney in Chicago the Washington con-
tingent made earnest efforts to bring
the bowling classic to this city, but no
decision was reached at that time.
Washington has been bidding for the
annual tournament for the past three
years. and as yet has failed to offer
the necessary inducements. 1t is esti-
mated that three weeks will be re-
auired to run off the events.
Toledo was chosen as the scene OF the
1918 activities on the bowling alleys
when John T. Willys, president OF the
Overland Automobile Company, guaran-
teed to defray one-half of the expenses
to conduct the tournament in that city.
The remainder of the money was i'm
mediatelv raised by subscription, and
Secretary Langtry was notified of To-
ledo's bid, which was accepted. The
Terminal building, in which the recent
state Democratic convention was held,
will be the scene of the bowling
matches.

Just how the men who have played
professional baseball after June / are
allowed to join the amateur ranks is
the problem which is being talked
about among the amateur fans today.
1t now appears that at least half
dozen former amateurs who have been
playing professional baseball have re-
turned and signed amateur contracts,
and are playing baseball under the
amateur commission.
The amateur fans want to know just
how these men are reinstated when
according to the ruling these players
are ineligible to play under the COM
mission. Zaneln and Murphy are the
last additions to the amateur ranks
and there are several others who
come in the same class.
This 1t would seem, according to
queries and statements, Is a direct
violation Of the amateur commission
that after June /. 1912. the players
who are signed under the national
agreement or who have been playing
professional baseball are not eligible
as amateurs.
1t was understood that the commits
sion aimed to clean the ranks of the
professional players as far as posi-
BILE and yet the commission ruled that
Zanelli, who has been playing all sea-
son with teams in the Virginia State
League, was eligible to join the anna
teur ranks.
The last word in the Capital City
League difficulty is the rumor that the
circuit is to be made out with six
clubs instead of four. 1t would seem.
according to reports that the circuit
would be composed of Cornell Com
pany, Brentwood, Riverdale, the Y. M.

said to be composed of star players
from the southeast.
