Everybody laughs again.
After supper the boy brought up

the McMahons will stage forty-two
rounds of boxing. The fact that the
staging of forty-two rounds of box

It was some clever pinning that the
National Turner's did last night in
the Star headpin tournament on the
Iroquois alleys. Considering that the
weather was so bad the turnout of
twelve teams and big band of root
ers was an excellent one. The New
ark League five of the National Turn
Verein. which took the first prize of
$50 last season with a mark of 529,
was eager to do as we'll this year.
The quintet, however, only bowled
itself into seventh place. The Subur-
ban League five finished in eleventh
place.
Both Frank Trensch and Ernest
Kraus, who had tallies of 10, earned
one of the gold watchfobs which the
Star offers to those who have scores
of 10 or better. There were seven

the silver watchfobs given by the
star . those who have scores be-
tweei. 100 and 10. These winners
we're; John Byrne. 1907; d. zazzali,
1917; Julius Baumbusch, 105; Conrad
Koegel, 1914; Carl Kleiber, 1922 Matt
Kleiber. 1O2; William Ertel, 100.
Carl Kleiber had a score of lO2 in
the eleventh frame, but, with pos
sible score of 112. he missed in the
last frame. There were some hard
luck bowlers. Graef considered that
he had the worst of it when he only
got a score of 80 on twelve hits. Ertel
was a bit fortunate, so he said. He
had 81 in the eleventh box and man
aged to knock down exactly tine six
pins that he needed with his last ball.

three from st. Rose of Lima in d.
