One of the most formidable en-
tries which has yet been received by
Secretary Goldberg for the fifth an
nual tournament of the Washington
city duckpin tournament is that of
Harry Krauss and P. B. Fletcher, in
the doubles. This pair of pinners
has decided to compete against the
ertire field of doubles. for high hon.
ors in the Class B, and they are ex-
pected to give others in this event an
animated struggle for superiority.
Together with this entry, Goldberg
today received two fve-men team en-
tries for the big duckpin tournament.
They are, the Brunswicks and Ok
fords, and are made up rs follows:
Brunswicks, H. B. HALEY, T. Wat
son, Eddie McKnew, j. B. Carroll,
and ]. Baum; Exfords, E. A. Fisher,
]. M. Perry, N. Mclaughlin, r. p.
Whiting, and T. H. Gill.
The Brunswick and Oxford entries
are among the very earliest received.
and the fact that they come nearly ten
days before the closing of the list Is
taken as an indication that the number
to register for competition during the
coming week will swell the entry to
point far above any that has ever
characterized the annual small pin tour
nament. TIE entries will close one
week from tonight. The last four days
of this period is expected to witness
grand clamor for registration, as the
final days have invariably been the ones
in which the bowlers come forward with
their entries In the largest numbers.
Besides the cash prizes and medals
which are annually awarded to the in
diyiduaIs and teams distinguishing

In this tournament every cent OF the
entry fees above the registration is to
