Smith Brockton Bowler Defends His Team Letter to The Star
"ALLEYS WERE NOT GROOVED,"
SAYS SMITH OF BROCKTON
Member of Bijou Team Declares Any One of Twenty
Men in That City Can Make the No. 10
Pin Nine Times Out of Ten.

SO Tar as to suggest selecting the I'VE
best men in New England to go against
| the Bijou team in a series.
| No Brockton team has ever been de-
| feated in an intercity match. We have
beaten Providence on Providence alleys;
| bested Taunton on Taunton alleys; won
| from Attleboro in Attleboro. These are
| all sandpapered centers We do not
| claim we can beat teams on polished sur
| faces, but 1 might say that this has been
done. and right in Boston. too.
1t is unfair to state, as one Washington
| paper did, that the Bijou bow1ers were
unable to score a single string of 100 in
| the recent intercity match at Lawrence.
] That match was rolled under conditions
| the like of which 1 never saw. with Law
| renee men crowding the runs on both
| sides and showing their arms in front Of

a poor first game, nearly won the second
game and lost the third by only. three
pins and on foreign. polished alleys at
that I might state in refutation of the
statement that we did not roll a single
game of 100 that in the last game 1 hit
for 100, which was higher than any
string l rolled on the Bijou alleys in the
return match here. And the records will
show other games of 100 CIR more made
by Bijou bowlers.
I am indeed sorry that one Washington
paper claimed that the Bijou supporters
were ihtehsei! pdltlsdIi' pul lhls 10 re-
futed by another, which speaks Of the
cheering given the Washington bowlers
when they made some creditable stroke.
1t is fact. which will be attested by
the Washington bowlers. that the Wash
ington team was given twice the applause
at the start of the game was given the
Bijou bowlers. The manager of the
Lawrence team wrote me personally and
thanked me for the fine treatment given
his team, and l am sure that the Wash
ington bowlers are satisfied with the way
they were used by the crowd.
Space prevents me from taking up some
more of the unjust statements made in
Washington. thank you very much for
the space you have allotted me.
Very truly yours,

Gilmore Serves Notice.

His announcement. he states, was in
the form of a notice as to what his
league would do in the event of further
attempts by organized ball clubs to lure
back players signed to regular Federal
League contracts. and the notice was for
the purpose of paving the way for in
slant action as matter of self-defense
and to checkmate further acts of agrees
sion by organized ball-which he was glad
to say had apparently ceased, for the
present at least thus making reprisal I'M
necessary at this time. though he could
not anticipate what the future might
bring forth.
Regarding the Kilifer injunction suit,
President Gilmore said he was compelled
to bring that in sheer self-respect. as the
Philadelphia club had refused to listen
to any compromise and in that stand was
backed up by the powers OF organized
ball. Mr. Gilmore said he visited Mr..
johnson and asked him whether he was
bent on legal war. to which PRESIDENT
Johnson replied with an emphatic mega
tive and suggested that the matter be
threshed out between Mr.. Gilmore and
the national commission.
