MAR, and Jack Slye, wen known to the |
blowers of the National Capitol and

uggestion that q series be rolled during /

In Offering this argument Slye had the
to say:
why, it will be the greatest tourna-
nent that any city in the South has ever
cen IL they provide competition for the |
uckpin bowlers. The Sport with the lit
lie balls and pins Is far more popular in i
IL of the cities, admitted to the tourney, |
nd for practically the same expense
hey can roll their matches in both styles

Syle explained further: THE added
ompete in an intercity duckpin tourney
Touid boost the list to such size that
richmond win be forced to its capacity
, take care OF the bowlers.
This does not indicate that the rum
ing of such an added attraction would L
e a monstrous job or that 1t would be L
ny harder to handle than the big pin
ourney. but so many more BOWERS would |,
rake the trip to the Virginia capital that 4
