now an assured fact that some reGula-
lions will be enforced on the sizes of the
balls and so on in the different games OF
pin spilling.
p 3. Fletcher. the local manager of the
Brunswick-Balke-C -CoIlender Company and
captain of the Brunswick team, made

ing.

ent agreed to accept a charter from the
national body, and the local organization
vas formed.

A big annual tournament will be held
each year in the three different games

opening affair at duckpin which is
scheduled to br held some time in the

officers annually and delegates will be
appointed to attend a meeting OF the
national body which will be held year
ly to elect its officers and make plans
