FIVE PERFECT
SCORES IN MONTH
FARGO STANDS OUT PROM.
NENTLY AS ONE OF FEW CIT.
les WHERE SEVERAL PERFECT
SCORES IN BOWLING HAVE
BEEN MADE.

That Fargo bowlers are in a class by
themselves Ia evidenced by the fact
that FIVE perfect scores have been
made in rapid succession on the Mes
tor alleys this season.
Yesterday Benarfa did the remark
able stunt of making two perfect
scores in succession, something that
it is safe to say has not been done
more than a very few times in all
bowling history.
He made twenty-six strikes in sue
cession, and he rolled his first game
in a six-handed match, where he was
rolling alternately on two alleys. The
last ball was rolled on alley 6, which
Ben says has always been his hoodoo,
but nevertheless he directed the pill in
the way it should go. and it went
there, for a perfect strike. r
Smith of the Nestor alleys did the
800 stunt first, after several times
coming within a few pins Of it. Emil
Salter did it next, rolling fifteen
straight strikes. '...
Then Joe Peterson went to the al
leys n afternoon and in thirty sue
cessive games established an average
of 232 pins, rolling a perfect score In
the last game, making the third on the
alleys. He came within one pin of the
800 mark in the sixth game.
And now Benarfa has climbed above
them all by rolling tWenty-six
straight strikes. It is a safe bet that
there are not many records in the en-
tire country which will surpass that,
If there are any at all.

rounds from Jose Rivers Of Los An

round. ....
This puts Welsh in line for a fight
with Willie Richie, the champion,
possibly July 4.
Welsh kept Rivers in the glare OF
the sun, and worried him with his
quick punch and lively footwork.
Welsh forced the fighting all the
way, and kept Rivers guessing, but the
Britisher's blows had little effect on
the Mexican. His wonderful left

At the final gong. when Referee
Eyton stepped forward, Rivers turn

pounds, and he has a hard, straight

knock out Johnson or any one else

The fight will not take place for

brought Moran back to this country.

HODGES LOOKS FOR
INCREASED TRAVEL
THINKS EUROPEAN WAR WILL
CAUSE EASTERNERS TO
COME WEST

"A mans opinion is always based
on his experience" said Vice Presi-
dent w. e. Hodges OF the Santa Fe
railway today, when asked by an
Optic representative what effect the
European war would be likely to have
on tourist travel and the Panama-Pa-
cific exposition next year. Smiling
pleasantly, he continued; You have
had just as much experience of this
war as l have. 1t is utterly impossi-
BILE to forecast what the effect of it
will ultimately be, but l half believe
that it will result in increased travel
for many reasons.
THE average New Yorker, for In
stance, does not know anything about
the world except New York and Eu-
rope. When he plans trip for pleas
ure he goes abroad. Now he will
either abandon his vacation or gain
at least a speaking acquaintance with
the western portion OF his own couE~
try.
"Of course, with an embargo in force
against the exporting of wheat and
cotton out of Galveston, our ship
ping is at comparative standstill,
and no one can foresee how long such
condition will exist. But, so far as
passenger traffic is concerned I do
firmly believe, or at least if | do not
believe it now, l am rapidly arriving
at the conclusion that it will at least
be no smaller than in the past. For
time the average may fall off; but
in time Mr.. New Yorker is coming to
the conclusion that there may be
something worth while seeing out
here"

Vegas last night in mis- private car,
made a trip out to the Montezuma
Hot Springs this morning, with some
of the members of the citizens com
mittee, and left on train No. 10 this
