Wins AlI-Around Title in
Big Tourney for Second
Year in Succession.
HARRY KRAUSS TAKES
CROWN IN SINGLES
TWo-Man Fixture Goes to Glenn
Riddell and Horton-Advance
Made in Pinning.
fPv T.lsrran On 20 III. Trihun. ]

Atlantic city, April 9s.-Jimmy Smith.
Of Brooklyn, often called the champion OF
all champions, proved his right 10 the
title in the National Bowling Associations
championship tournament, which came 20
a close in this city tonight, by winning
the all-around fixture for the second year
in succession, a performance never before
accomplished in the history Of tenpins
His total for nine games was 1917, an
average Of 213.
The marx is not a worlds record nor
even National Bowling Association rec
ord. for the best performance ever known
i'm competition OF this kind was Smiths
own 1850. made in the Canadian cham
pionship two years ago. Mortimer Lind
sey's 2.03l. in Paterson in 1872, was the
best ever done in a National Bowling AS
ISOLATION meeting.
Smiths total in this tournament was
70 pins better than that OF his nearest
rival, Chris Thiess. OF Cleveland
Harry Krauss, Of Washington, captured
the championship in singles with total
of s7S, two pins better than the score OF
Joseph West, of Buffalo, a former title
holder, and only four pins better than
that Of the third man. Harry Savage, OF
Schenectady.
In the final games last night two
changes occurred in the standing OF this
fxture-C II. Wagner, of Newark, rolling
GO and tieng for fifth and sixth places
while T. Blume, Of Uniontown, Penn,
made 647 and took tenth place.
Glenn Riddell. who. with Jimmy Smith,
won the two-man title last year at Roches-
ter. earned the same crown this time, ex-
cept that Harold w Horton, OF New
York former metropolitan champion,
was his partner. Their total was 1888,
within 90 pins Of the worlds record.
Jimmy Smith and Jimmy Spinella. OF
Brooklyn. were second with IN. There
were no changes in the doubles standing
tonight.
How much the calibre OF the bowling In
the tournament just concluded has i'm
proved over that memorable first gather
ing Of the national body in this city seven
years ago is shown by the fact that no
fewer than seven individuals beat the
mark of G. Frank Sauer. the winner that
time He had 657.
In the doubles eight pairs finished bet
ter than the !. 220 Of Tuthll and Nelson In
1901 Eight teams in the ive-man inn
proved the championship mark OF 2.S1i OF
the Corinthians OF that year

EXERCISE IN THE FRESH AIR
No Doctors Prescription So Valuable

Occupation.

When health is the great desiderar

was we'll illustrated by the man who
recently double-crossed the continent
In 1922 days. At the time OF his leaV::

threatened with consumption. He
realized that fresh air, exercise and
sunshine formed the perfect trinity
that spells health. He started on that
long tramp expecting health as the re-
suit. Did he get It? Sure. One gets
what he expects-not merely what he
hopes for; not merely what he de
sires. but he must expect to get that
for which he hopes and desires; then
lay hold Of the means, as did this
man, whereby the object may be OBJ
tanned and then retained. He Is, az
