H|LDEBRAND DOES
MUCH FOR BOWLING
Achieves Greatest Success as
Organizer of Duckpin League
for Women.

Anent the vast growth in POPULARITY
Of duckpins which has made itself an
parent in Washington. there is, among
others, one bowler to whom the game
owes much for its constant increase In
favor. Reference is made to William P.
Hildebrand whose very business from
the time he arst became a self-support-
Ing man, has been with the mineraIite
and maplewood.
Entering his fourth season as an ac-
tive bowler and manager of bowling en-
poriums here, Hildebrand this year
blossoms forth in his new headuuart ers
at the National Capital Bowling Acad-
envy In the National Rifles Armor-y
Building, where he has installed ten
brand new regulation Brunswick Bake
ColIender alleys; and the very day he
opened the doors of his latest venture,
quarters there.
Three years ago last September, Hide
brand first made his appearance in
Washington when he took charge of
the Arcade Alleys where be was in
strumental in organizing three circuits,
the Arcade, Patent Exa1uiners' and Post
Office leagues. Later the Mt. Pleasant
loop was formed to bowl at Hildebrand's 8
headquarters and he probably reached
The climax of his bowling career when
last season Re organized The Ladies AZ
ternoon League, consisting of four
teams. This vas the first circuit ever
and no end OF interest was displayed up
pt
ton, in the duckpin matches between
the women Of the Mt Pleasant section.
quito unique is the manner in which
Hlloebrand attacted the women to his
establishment and the details bear re-
counting here. The genial proprietor be-
came the author OF a booklet entitled
Bowling as an Art" and SO simply
did he describe the business Of duckpin
anG tenpin bowling. that he was fairly
from the women.
one OF his patrons among the fair
sex set up a record for high game
which surpassed anything that mad ever
been recorded by 4 woman in the big
tournaments Of this county for tho past
five years, and a common occurrence
on the mCZZanne floor Of the Arcade
was o match gam" in which one of Hill

eighteen. has been on tho mapIeWOod
runway. Befor" he took charge of the
local inustitutIon. he had charge oi a
construction corps Of the Prunswick-
BaIke-ColIcnder Company with head
quarters at Baltimore. He has installed
alleys throughout this country for that
establishment, and his paramount
knowledge Of the game lies IN his thor
ough familiarity with proper bowling
conditions governing regulation alleys
This has proven his greatest asset IN
achieving success In Washington, as he
always insists on absolutely proper en-
virOnments. such as regulation pins,
balls, alleys and the strict observation
Of foul line rules.
Washington has indeed been fortunate
in providing q sufficiently attractive
field TO keep HIdehrand within the fold
for he has proven his ability TO build up
the game and maintain II at a standard
which knows no decline. lfildcbrand has
taken no lttl" part in league howling
when his other duties hav" permitted,
his principal affiliation being with the
Imperial team in the Arcade League,

athletic family, for his efforts at Vig1-
liant Park yesterday paved the way for
a defeat Of Business High School by a

The fifth game Of the high school

thrills galore for the followers Of both

better bet 1t was known that Central
was weakened by the loss of two repu-
table players, and the team had been
unfortunate in being deprived of its
coach for day or two previous to the
contest.
Business, on the other hand. had been
benefited by a ten-day rest, and tho
addition OF two players whose strength
was expected to add greatly to the gen.

obtained by Central, however, in the
first quarter when Ike" Macdonald

post White, for Central, was found to
be the opportunist- A plunge was stop
ped by the Business line, and then
Ike Macdonald went over for
touchdown.
Instead Of punting out, Macdonald
decided to try for a difficult goal a"d
came through nicely. to tho great delight
of Central followers, VINO realized that
the bulge had been obtained by the
first score. Thereafter both teams
fought hard, Business endeavoring to
a varied assortment Of plays. and Cen
tral striving successfully to keep its
goal line from being crossed.
Central owes it's victory to the splen-
did opposition Of its line. which proved
to be q veritable stonewall. Time and
again Business with fancy formations
was met and checked by the ever shift
ing Central line. Seldom was Business
able to pierce the Central line. but
made considerable headway around the
ends, Culligan and Ray Wise tearing
of gains from ten to thirty yards.
Culligan proved the most versatile
player so far seen in the schools. d.
rectlng plays with rare Judgment he
kept CentraIs secondary defense on the
move at all times and completely
baffied the ends with cross bucks and
shifts. II was the Central line. how
ever. that proved Business undoinE, for
at critical stages when Centrars ter
ritory had been reached the forwards
broke through and ripped up the Busi-
ness plays.
During the second quarter Keech. the
Business fullback. was taken out of the
game with an injured shoulder. 1t Is
thought that the loss Of the fullback
seriously hampered the work Of the
Business backfield to such an extent
that tho team was slowed UP. Dow
rick was taken from end and put in
tho backneld, bit Keech's loss was a
blow from which the Stenographers
failed to recover.
