FOUR NAMES ADDED
TO GARRISON TEAM
Race in District Duckpin League
Close and Teams Sign New
Rollers.

Four new members have been intro
duced in the lineup Of the Garrisons. Of
the District League, namely: List.
Matchett. Schmidt and Guy Eiker. Ono
of the most stirring contests of any
duckpin circuit of Washington now
exists in the District League and as the
season approached the end, several Of
the teams have augmented their ranks
by the addition Of new material. In the
hopes Of finishing within the money.
Just last week, Captain Dulin, Of the
Jeds, added to his forces two rollers
who are expected to see nis team
through the struggle which now con-
fronts them IN order to finish in the
leading position, and now the Garrisons
come along with four new faces In the
lineup of their team.
Probably no small pin circuit Of tae
city has witnessed the animated rece
for superiority which has gradually de-
veloped in the District League, and the
addition of new material to the various
teams only goes to snow that those
teams which have a chance to finish
within the money, are going to make
record breaking race for the nag.
Whether or not the lineup Of the Garri-
sons as presented in their games with
the Jeds last Friday will be adhered to
in the future has not been announced
by the captain of the team, but the FOUR
bowlers mentioned above are now ell
gible to roll, and may still be tnstru-
mental in helping the Garrisons In the
District League battle.

its annual Southern trip tomorrow,
playing games with Virginia, George

there Is still much competition for po-

WAS almost helpless when stacked up

The fact that bowling in the two cities
concerned in this match is so varied is
said by the conservative followers of the
sport today 10 leave the two competing
teams at about the same point n which
they originally commenced their cuntro
rcrFy. The Bilious still remain the
champions of Brockton and the All-Stars
are yet the best to be found in WASH
ington. Neither has any claim on the
Others territory, for they are engaging
in different kind OF sport. The very
scores of the games prove that Brockton
could never whip a local team in Wash
ington and vice versa
Brockton has boasted much of its rec
ord of registering fifty-five spares on its
cwn alleys, and in return Washington is
today pointing the finger of pride at the
sixty spares which its rollers contri-
buted while performing at the Royal al
leys. Eighteen of these MARKS were
turned in by the visitors Monday night
at the Royal. while their strikes totaled
only to the number of nine, as against
thirty-eight clean sweeps totaled on the
Bijou alleys These figures are not
claimed by either side 10 depreciate the
effectiveness of the other, but more to
emphasize the vast difference in the
were from competing on common basis.
