HALEY HELPS WIN
EIGHTEEN CONTESTS
Teams on Which He Rolled Last
Week Failed to Drop Single
Game.
By KIRK c. MILLER.

Apropos Of the present duckpin sea-
son, which seems destined to be rec
ord one in the matter OF the accom-
plishment of high Individual and team
scores, Pop HALEY did some things
in the week Just closed which furnish
interesting study for the nuts" who
daily pursue the bowling columns. TO
wit: In the eighteen games which he
rolled during the week in regular league
competition, HALEY was a winner, as
was the team on which he rolled, and
In each instance, with ono exception,
the team on which he bowled was and
still Is leading its league.
Rolling with the Royals on Monday
night. his team. the Royals, won all
three games from the Shermans. in the
District Duckpin League. On the fol-
lowing night HALEY. performing with
the Altamonts. was Instrumental In
helping them to win all six games OF a
double-header with the Unos. Coming
right back on Thursday night, HALEY,
as a member of the Welsbachs. helped
that team to completely route the Judd
& Detweiler outfit, tho printers drop
ping all three. This was in the Com
mercial League.
Friday night, in the lineup OF the
Palace squad, Halley's rolling was a
big factor in Palaces to defeat or
the Potomacs, in the National Capital
loop. HALEY reached the zenith OF his
active week on the maplewoods when
the welsbachs annihilated the General
Baking Company lads IN postponed
game, which was disposed OF Saturday
night. With the exception OF the Roy
ais, Halley's own team In the District
League. all of the clubs with which he
performed are leading their respective
leagues. The Royals are second in the
District Jeds only having a better rec
ord this season.

DakotaS Make Remarkable
Squirt From Last to Second
Place in Two Weeks.

Maintaining a substantial lead In the
Y. NJ. c. A League, tho Utes seem
bound to enter the New Year with first
place honors safely tucked away In
their archives. An interesting compe-
tition has been struck up between the
Crows and Dakotas VINO are tied for
second place Also the Navajos and
Creeks have locked up the fourth place
honors and those teams promise
neck and neck struggle before ex-
elusive right TO that position shall be
fully established.
One of the most remarkable spurts
which has been demonstrated by any
club in the league is that which was
displayed by the Dakotas who climbed
from last place into that second place
tie. within the short period OF two
weeks.
Below are the complete team and in
diVidual averages:

Only Bonds Will Be Handled for
the Present, Is Today's
Prospect.

Though trading on the New York
Stock Exchange viii be resumed in the
stocks listed on that board under re-
stricted conditions, on Saturday. the
Washington Stock Exchange Will take
no steps to extend its activity beyond
its bond list, at present. The govern
ing committee of the local exchange
will hold its regular monthly meeting
next Monday. and doubtless the ques-
ton of resuminG stock trading will
then be considered. There Is no cer,-
tainty. however. that immediate opera
tons in stocks will be sanctioned.
While number of members OF the
exchange are confident that restricted
trading might be carried on. other MEM
bers prefer TO await a full resumption
OF business until there Is n more ap-
parent desire on the part of the IN
vesting public to trade In stocks. Tho
date which has been suggested by ad-
vocates of a later opening Is January
/. At that time many dividend disburse-
ments will be made, and money will be
easier, II is said
