Buffalo Planning Big Times
for American Bowling Congress

BUFFALO, N. Y, Jan. 23--Buffalo
is planning a rousing welcome to the
visiting bowlers who attend the
American Bowling Congress In this
city. March 8 to March 21. The local
pin knights are awake to the fact that
the coming tourney, the fourteenth
international of the American Bowl
ing Congress, will be the largest ever
held, owing to Buffalo's large field
from which to draw entries, and
promise to give q reception, never
before rendered visiting bowlers.
Buffalo feels proud alone for the
magnificent building secured for the
tournament, the Broadway auditor
ium being the most convenient and
and adaptable for such an event. Its
perfect lighting and heating systems,
its spacious capacity and seating ar
rangements which include galleries,
grandstand, etc. make it an ideal en-
closure for such purposes and in that
respect will attract large attend
ance and entry list Never before
has such magnificent building been
used for bowling .tournaQasnt

MILE EVENT WILL
BRING OUT STARS
Scott, Anderson, Myers and
Devaney Will Clash at Cen
trail Meet.
CLOSE CONTEST ASSURED

When the milers are started or In
che Central High School games at
The First regiment armory Saturday,
January 81, there will be five Jersey
boys who can be counted on to put
up a sterling race from the crack OF
tl1e gun. Foremost of the milers is
Louis Scott, the sturdy runner OF
Paterson. Scott prefers the longer
distance, but is at home In the mile
rs was shown Wednesday night when
he won the mile race at the Elks'
games in Paterson. 1t may be re-
anembered that the SILK City artist
defeated Hans Kolehmainen in the
Ahree-miie handicap at the games
held by the Central High School last
gear. Considering that the Finn Is
4he champion of the world at the
1000 and 10000 metres, this was con-
eidered a wonderful feat for the South
Paterson boy.
Billy Anderson, of Roselle Park,
: Aolder of the 1,000-yard A. A. u. ma
Honal junior indoor championship,
will also toe the mark at the start
Of the mile run. Doe Myers, the
former Central High School runner,
who is attending Dartmouth, will
pome down from the hills of Hanover,
~. H., to compete. Myers was always
D favorite on the track while COM
peting for the local school and his
many Newark friends will have a
phance to see what improvement he
has made at college in the running
tine. 1t was expected that Ezra
Wenz, an old-time rival of Myers,
would compete, but the Roselle boy
has failed to come through with an
entry, and 1t Is rather doubtful II he
will appear. Myers and Wenz always
was one of the greatest drawing cards
on the schoolboy athletic program,
and although the local boy was de-
geated the most times by Wens he
always managed to put up stin
nght for first honors
Wenz was picked for the all-schol-
hstic two-mile run by James r. Sui
Iivan. The only time OF recent years
ehat Myers defeated Wenz was at the
Dickinson High School meet held in
Jersey City last year, when he ran
ehe mile in 4 minutes 36 seconds,
creating a new schoolboy record.
Mike Devaney, of Soho, will meas
are strides with Myers. Scott and An
aerson. Fred Seyfarth, of this city,
b also expected to be on hand.
'Ted" Meredith. the University of
Pennsylvania flyer. is to be a men,
Der of the relay team which will rep
resent the United States against Cam
. ada in an event, the date of which
has not yet been determined. Mere
1ith accepted the invitation of the
New York A. C. to compete as a
seam-mate of Mel Sheppard, Thomas
Halpin and HOBBY Baker.

pected Soon.
SMITH ONLY CATCHER LEFT

That a catcher or two will be ex-
pressed to the Newark club within
short time by Brooklyn lie tho re-
port circulated today. The founda-
ton for the rumor lie the fact that
TEX Erwin, the catcher who was
on the Newark clubs reserve list
has been recalled by Brooklyn, ao-
cording to President Ebbetss an
nouncement today. Wilbur Robin
son wants the veteran backstop's
assistance In coaching some Of the
Superbas' young pitchers and En-
win 1t at present In Texas getting
into shape Originally Erwin lived
in the Lone Star State, but while
playing in Rochester, he married q
Flower City girl and has since lived
there.
Erwin was on the Newark clubs
reserve List last year though he never
got into a game When Smith was
laid up with injuries and McCarty
had been taken to Brooklyn, Erwin
was scheduled to come here.
But he had played with Toronto
in q few games and an International
League rule which forbids any play
err being transferred from one club
to another within thirty days before
the close of thes eason, prevented
Erwin from performing in a Tiger
uniform. This rule is made to pre-
vent clubowners from aiding one
another by padding teams that have
a pennant chance and drawing stars
from the second division teams for
the purpose.
